Today, POLITICO Energy host Josh Siegel sits down for an extended interview with Ohio GOP Rep. Bob Latta, who is running for the top Republican position on the powerful House Energy and Commerce committee next Congress. The race could have a big impact on the future of President Joe Biden’s climate agenda, and the interview comes a month after Siegel spoke with Latta’s competitor, Kentucky GOP Rep. Brett Guthrie. Siegel and Latta discuss the Ohio Republican’s energy stances, his vision for that committee, if he will follow through on GOP threats to repeal parts of the Inflation Reduction Act, and his race with Guthrie.
