Energy Secretary Chris Wright has repeatedly denied that politics were involved in the termination of more than 280 grants last October. A court filing made public in July, however, shows that Energy Department lawyers admitted that the only reason why those awards and not others were canceled is that the grant recipients were in states that vote for Democrats.
Wright’s Hairsplitting Statements About Canceled Energy Grants in Blue States
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA includes all our states! This is a crying shame for the government to pick and choose who gets the grants. Congress needs to get a spine and not let this happen!
Fits the continuous pattern of Red states getting (needing?) more from the Federal government than Blue states. Don’t forget which states contribute the most to the Federal coffers.
