The White House’s semi-annual rulemaking agenda released on Tuesday shows the Biden administration is planning to unveil significant regulatory actions in the energy and climate space in the first half of 2024 —  including major policy priorities from the Environmental Protection Agency, and the Interior and Energy Departments. POLITICO’s Alex Guillén breaks down what to expect and why it’s important for the White House to get those rules finished as soon as possible ahead of the 2024 elections. Plus, House Republicans unveiled a measure to significantly cut back funding for climate activities and other Biden administration priorities at the Energy Department and federal water agencies.
