Stacey Abrams: Biden’s EPA Gave Me $2B to Buy People New Home Appliances to Reduce Electric Bills

EXCERPT:

ABRAMS: “In 2023 and 2024, I led a program called Vitalizing DeSoto. We worked in a tiny town in South Georgia to demonstrate that by replacing energy-inefficient appliances with efficient appliances, you can lower your cost. In fact, we accomplished that. For 75% of the community, they got appliances that are lowering their bills right now. We had one woman who saw her electric bill cut in half, from 180 to $98. That’s what we delivered. And based on that program, a coalition of organizations, famous organizations came together and said to the EPA, ‘If we can do this here, we can do this for millions more Americans. Let us invest the money of America in lowering the cost for Americans.’ And the EPA said, ‘Okay, great, go for it.’”
