President Joe Biden wants to establish a legacy for climate action that includes locking in a trajectory for reducing the nation's planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions.

Former President Donald Trump has pledged to rescind unspent funds in Biden 's climate and health care bill and stop offshore wind development if he returns to the White House in January .

Biden is seeking to spend billions in projects approved under the bipartisan infrastructure law in 2021 and the 2022 CHIPS and Science Act .

Companies have announced about 340 major clean energy projects across the country in the past two years .

Sixty percent of those, representing 82% of the investments and 69% of jobs, are in Republican congressional districts.

Eighteen House Republicans , including several in close races for reelection, told the House speaker in August they want to protect energy tax credits.
