Trump Wants To End EV Tax Credits But Yellen Warns of Higher Bills, Lost Jobs, and China's Gain
On Thursday, U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen reportedly stated that eliminating the clean energy tax credits provided by the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) "would be a historic mistake."
據報道，美國財政部長賈內特·耶倫週四表示，取消通脹減免法案提供的清潔能源稅收抵免將是一個歷史性錯誤。
She cautioned that efforts to reverse President Joe Biden's administration's clean energy tax credits would increase families' costs and threaten new investments in U.S. manufacturing that are generating jobs, reported Reuters.
據路透社報道，她警告稱，要廢除喬·拜登政府的清潔能源稅收抵免政策將增加家庭成本，並威脅到正在爲美國製造業帶來就業機會的新投資。
Yellen said the rollback could give China, which is investing in green energy industries, an advantage.
耶倫說，這種撤銷可能會讓中國在投資綠色能源產業方面佔得優勢。
Yellen highlighted that families nationwide had already claimed $8.4 billion in energy tax credits, which will help reduce their long-term energy bills.
耶倫強調，全國各地的家庭已經申領了8400萬美元的能源稅收抵免，這將有助於降低他們的長期能源賬單。

She added, "Rolling them back could raise costs for working families at a moment when it's imperative that we continue to take action to lower prices,"
她補充道：「如果取消這些抵免，會在家庭成本上漲的當口加劇，而這正是我們繼續採取行動降低價格的必要時刻。」
"It could jeopardize the significant investments in manufacturing we're seeing here and across the country, along with the jobs that come with them, many of which don't require a college degree."
「這可能會危及到我們在這裏和全國範圍內所看到的製造業的重大投資，以及隨之而來的工作機會，其中很多不需要大學學位。」
