Trump clean energy policies linked to $83 billion in delayed or canceled projects
BlueGreen Alliance said 223 stalled or canceled projects have wiped out $82.9 billion in investment and 111,765 jobs.
- On Tuesday, the BlueGreen Alliance released a report linking Donald Trump's clean energy policies to $83 billion in delayed or canceled investment across 223 manufacturing and clean energy projects.

- Under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, stricter tax credit eligibility threatens an estimated $695.2 billion in investment and nearly 1.2 million projected jobs across 3,034 manufacturing and energy projects.
- Labor leaders met with federal senators on Tuesday to discuss clean energy workforce impacts, with Roxanne Johnson, BlueGreen Alliance vice president of research, stating the figures illustrate "staggering loss of investment and job creation."
- Federal funding cuts and regulatory rollbacks by the Environmental Protection Agency have weakened workplace protections, including delays to a silica exposure rule that could contribute to black lung disease among coal miners.
