Trump Revokes 'Green' Columbia River Policy
Tap title to read story
President Trump revoked a Biden administration memorandum prioritizing fish populations over energy resources in the Columbia River Basin. The memorandum reversed commitments to dam breaching, which would have reduced water supply, harmed agriculture, increased energy costs, and eliminated hydroelectric power for 2.5 million homes. Trump's action aims to prioritize American energy dominance and economic growth, arguing that environmental protection and economic prosperity are not mutually exclusive.
