This GOP governor wants Trump to honor IRA energy contracts

POLITICO’s Josh Siegel recently interviewed Republican Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt, who is urging the Trump administration to fulfill the clean energy contracts signed by the Biden administration and to treat all types of energy production the same. Siegel discusses his takeaways from the interview ahead of Stitt’s visit to D.C. this week for governors’ meetings. Plus, environmental groups filed lawsuits Wednesday challenging President Donald Trump’s orders to put millions of acres of federal waters back into consideration for potential oil and gas drilling.
