A recently signed executive order by President Donald Trump has Northwest Indiana environmental advocates concerned about upcoming energy policies.

The order outlines how the Trump administration plans for the U.S. to stay a “global energy leader long into the future.” “In recent years, burdensome and ideologically motivated regulations have impeded the development of these resources, limited the generation of reliable and affordable electricity, reduced job creation, and inflicted high energy costs upon our citizens,” said Trump’s executive order. “These high energy costs devastate American consumers by driving…
President Donald Trump signed an order to put tariffs on U.S. neighbors Canada and Mexico, as well as China, starting Tuesday. Canada and Mexico quickly announced retaliatory tariffs, while China said it would take “necessary countermeasures.” The business between the North American nations now exceeds China, totaling $1.8 trillion in 2023.
