SENATOR-ELECT JOHN CURTIS ON IRA REPEALS: Senator-elect John Curtis, who has been a leading Republican climate hawk in the House of Representatives, said Congress “owes” it to the American people to fine-tune provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act, rather than doing away with the entire Democratic-passed legislation.

The details: Curtis made the remarks during a breakfast hosted by C3 Solutions at the Capitol Hill Club Wednesday, which also featured a discussion with former Deputy Secretary of Energy Mark Menezes.
Curtis began by admitting there is a “lot of fear” over a potential overhaul of the IRA. However, he insisted that his Democratic colleagues, environmentalist activists, and others “shouldn’t be afraid.”
“We will use a surgical approach to this,” the Utah Republican said. “I think even our Democratic colleagues should be comfortable with the surgical approach. They spent $1.57 trillion in a very short period of time. Could they have gotten some things wrong? Of course, and so we ought to be receptive to refinement.”
