Today is my last day at @briandeeseNEC. I leave the White House humbled by what we have been able to accomplish over the last two years, and confident in the team moving forward. Time to finish the job! Starting tomorrow, you can find me at @BrianCDeese.
It has been an unspeakable privilege to serve @POTUS. Thank you: For putting your trust in me; For leading us with resolve and integrity; and For your unwavering vision that we can and will build an economy that works for all Americans. https://t.co/YVwMNSSioH

@POTUS called for action in SOTU, and today United is making the right move. Parents shouldn’t have to pay an extra fee to sit next to their young children. https://t.co/Uy7snxknrF

Another week with more commitments to invest in America. From Ford in Michigan to Texas Instruments in Utah to Boeing all across the country. These commitments will create jobs, increase supply chain resilience and bolster America’s industrial base.

"It's unfortunate that Congress didn't move forward [with permitting],” says NEC Director @Brian_C_Deese. "It needs to be a priority. We need comprehensive permitting reform to move at the scale and speed we need to build the clean energy economy and maintain energy security."

Some good perspective from @BGAlliance on @USTreasury’s new advanced energy credit guidance: “The groundwork is being laid for an industrial & manuf. revitalization in our country, incl. in the places hardest hit by our energy transition & the loss of good manuf. jobs overseas”
#ICYMI @USTreasury released new guidance for #48C to expand #USManufacturing and quality jobs for #CleanEnergy technologies; reduce #GHG emissions; secure domestic supply chains; and drive investments into energy communities. Statement:

Enjoyed speaking with @Freakonomics and @SecRaimondo – Great discussion about this Administration’s work to invest in American infrastructure, innovation, and clean energy All while reducing the deficit
For decades, the U.S. let globalization run its course and hoped China would be an ally. Now the Biden admin is spending billions to bring back high-tech manufacturing. Is this the start of a new industrial policy — or another round of corporate welfare?

The record jobs growth of the last two years isn’t just about recovering pandemic losses: We’re now 2.7M jobs above the pre-Covid payrolls peak. For comparison: at this point post-Great Recession, we were still 7.5M jobs *below* '07 levels. @Morning_Joe

Repealing the Inflation Reduction Act would increase the deficit and increase Rx drug prices. It would also increase health insurance premiums – and raise taxes – for an est. 14.5M people.
