Nevada Democrats Against American Energy

Rapid Response

Nevada Democrats are betting their “green energy transition” on a Chinese-backed lithium mine instead of unleashing American energy.

According to new reporting from The Washington Free Beacon, Nevada Democrats Governor Steve Sisolak and Senator Catherine Cortez Masto are supporting a lithium mining company whose “largest shareholder is a Chinese enterprise led by known Chinese Communist Party members.”

And what’s happening as Democrats enrich liberal donors and Communist China? American energy costs are soaring:

  • Gas is up more than $1 per gallon from when Biden took office.
  • Electricity costs are up 16% from last year.
  • Home heating costs are set to jump 35% “to an average of $1,202 from two seasons ago.”

In fact, the average American family has LOST $1,500 on increased energy costs since Biden took office.

If Democrats actually cared about Americans’ energy needs, they’d fight to reopen the pipelines the Biden administration shut down. Even former Clinton and Obama economist Larry Summers called Biden “insane” for not backing new pipeline construction. But it’s clear: Democrats don’t care.
