1 check for “Citizens Against Government Waste”

Citizens Against Government Waste, advocacy group

“More than half of the $739 billion tax increase (in the Inflation Reduction Act) will go to wasteful Green New Deal programs like tree equity, 'clean' garbage trucks, and studying cow farts.”

PolitiFact rated this: Mostly False

PolitiFact says: The bill’s environmental provisions do add up to $391 billion, or more than half of $739 billion. However, the amount spent on trees, clean trucks and cattle emissions account for a tiny fraction of that.
