The outgoing Joe Biden administration prioritized actions on this front, passing a landmark bipartisan infrastructure law and the $300 billion investment of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), and matching this legislation with an expansive slate of regulations and incentive-based programs favoring a clean manufacturing agenda. The future of this agenda depends on the outcome of the election.

The ruling was not specifically concerned with energy or climate policy. But its consequences for US decarbonization are profound.
