Contributing sentiments towards policy:

58% : The IRA's climate provisions include tens of billions of dollars to incentivize the domestic manufacture and production of clean energy sources and their technologies.
58% : Here's one spot that will run on national cable and streaming platforms and is targeted at younger voters: And here's another spot that's similarly targeted: Note that these ads emphasize production of clean energy in America -- these investments will create U.S. manufacturing jobs.
57% : They link incentives for American families to shift to clean energy directly to energy savings -- amplifying a supply-side message that says spending will create more energy, lowering its cost.
53% : This, of course, points to one of the problems with the IRA's climate provisions: It nudges people and our economy toward clean energy, but without placing serious constraints on future fossil fuel activity.
