      Yes actually - the Inflation Reduction Act was designed as a decarbonization bill. It needed the votes of Manchin and Sinema (who are in the pocket of the fossil fuels industry) to pass, so it aims for vehicle electrification, and is carrots-only. Get them the kind of super-majority with a few votes to spare, and we’d see a real policy change.
