Energy costs rise due to Trump policies
A nonpartisan think tank projects that federal policy changes under President Trump will cause U.S. households to pay an average of $6,500 more for energy through 2040, with some states facing nearly $9,000 additional costs. These policies, including rollback of clean energy initiatives and increased reliance on fossil fuels, are expected to raise demand for natural gas and gasoline, leading to higher prices. The analysis also links these policies to increased air pollution, higher healthcare costs, and environmental impacts, with higher energy bills already evident and projected to worsen, especially in Oregon, which may see household energy costs increase by over $9,000 cumulatively by 2040.
