New House Appropriation Act Strong First Step to Restoring American Energy Independence

Washington, D.C. - Standing up to President Biden’s army of bureaucrats and fighting for energy price relief for America’s families are key elements of the newly released House Consolidated Appropriations Act. In response to the measure, Power The Future Founder and Executive Director Daniel Turner released the following statement:

“Enough is enough, Joe Biden is pushing through his extreme climate agenda by using every corner of the administration while using our tax dollars to do it. By cutting back funding on Biden’s army of bureaucrats, this appropriation bill will send the message that driving up prices on our families is no longer acceptable. We commend Chair Granger for reclaiming congressional authority from a rogue administrative state that uses unappropriated funds to advance an agenda that neither Congress nor the American people support.”

PTF Urges House Committee To Investigate Podesta Corruption in LNG Ban

Washington, D.C. - Power The Future is urging the House Energy and Commerce Committee to investigate Climate Czar John Podesta’s role in the recent decision to halt American liquified natural gas (LNG) exports. According to a recent report from the Washington Free Beacon, Podesta played a major role in President Biden’s LNG decision, while his brother works as a lobbyist for foreign producers. According to the report, Tony Podesta works for at least one foreign LNG company that was funded by a Russian oligarch.

Putin Endorses Biden As His Climate Czar's Family Profits From 'America Last' Energy Policies

Washington, D.C. - Despite President Joe Biden’s constant blaming of Vladimir Putin for high energy prices in the United States, the Russian leader says Biden is his preference to win re-election. Putin praised Biden as “more predictable” and “a politician of the old formation.”   The endorsement arrives less than a month after President Biden put a halt to approvals for liquified natural gas (LNG) exports. As reported today, Biden’s move was pushed by new Climate Czar John Podesta while a member of his family works as lobbyist for foreign LNG producers, including one founded by a Russian energy oligarch that stands to personally profit from Biden’s policy.

PTF Sues Biden Administration Over Kerry's Secret Climate Office

Washington, D.C. - Power The Future is taking legal action against the Biden Administration over their continued refusal to disclose public information surrounding the office of former Climate Czar John Kerry. The Freedom of Information lawsuit, filed in the Washington, D.C. U.S. District Court, outlines the Biden Administration's failures to disclose the names of those who work in the office and their titles.  Since he was appointed to the position three years ago and up until he stepped down last month, John Kerry continually withheld this information from the public and Congress, claiming that he only reports to President Biden.

BREAKING: Documents Reveal United Nations Group Funding Staff, Policy in Blue States

Washington, D.C. - In a new bombshell report today, Fox News is exposing the flow of money from the United Nations Foundation to American state governments in an effort to sway climate policy. According to tax filings, the foundation sent $5.4 million to 12 state governments to pay for staff within governor’s offices and state agencies. These staff members then are able to influence climate policy at the state level in an arrangement they labeled as “UN strengthening.”

“It’s sickening to see governors taking in millions through a cozy climate scheme while working Americans are paying more for energy,” said Daniel Turner, Founder and Executive Director for Power The Future. “We see these governors smile along while Joe Biden forces his climate mandates and now we know the reason why is because they’re influenced by staff on the United Nations payroll. These backdoor funding schemes should be illegal, but for the eco-left it’s just business as usual.”

PTF Slams Appointment of John Podesta as Climate Envoy

Washington, D.C. - Today, the White House announced that political operative John Podesta would be appointed as Climate Czar to replace the departing John Kerry. In response, Daniel Turner, Founder and Executive Director for Power The Future issued the following statement:

“As if we needed more proof that the green agenda is only about political power, appointing Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman sealed the deal. Appointing John Podesta is another nail in the coffin of Joe Biden’s credibility. He is a political operative who has made a living working inside the climate industrial complex, and his appointment is a sure sign that the green agenda is about to be weaponized for political gain. It doesn’t matter if it’s Kamala Harris in charge of the border, or John Podesta in charge of the climate; when Joe Biden hires someone failure isn’t far behind.”

PTF Slams Biden For Selling Out Ukraine To Appease Environmental Extremists

Washington, D.C. - Nearly three years to the day after canceling the Keystone XL pipeline, President Joe Biden halted permits on liquified natural gas export projects, which have sharply increased following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February. Daniel Turner, Founder and Executive Director for Power The Future responded with the following statement:

“This type of appeasement by the Biden Administration would make Neville Chamberlain proud. Handing a major win to the extreme environmental left and Vladimir Putin is bad enough. Doing it in the shameless pursuit of his re-election chances is even worse. Every Democrat in Congress who purports to support Ukraine must stand up and call on Biden to reverse this reckless decision. Destroying Americans jobs while weakening support for our allies is disgraceful behavior and beneath the office Biden wants to hold for another four years."
