POLITICO exclusively obtained an internal memo this week showing that Interior Secretary Doug Burgum must directly sign off on all permits for wind and solar projects on federal lands — a shift that could dramatically slow clean energy development across the country. POLITICO’s Zack Colman and Josh Siegel break down how the directive fits into President Donald Trump’s broader push to rein in green energy and why critics see it as a backdoor attempt to kill renewables with red tape. Plus, President Donald Trump has officially nominated David LaCerte to serve on the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
