While energy prices continue to rise, the Biden administration continues to promote “environmental justice,” policies that Donna Jackson says are harming black Americans.

“When you have someone that's spending more than 30% of their income for gasoline and they're making choices between whether their kids can have… food to eat, or medicine, or pay their energy bills, electricity, gasoline, then that is not a pain point, that's genocide,” says Jackson, a programs director of membership development at the National Center for Public Policy Research, the nations largest black conservative think tank.

The political left has created an environmental agenda they say will help minority communities, but it is an “agenda that Black people never asked for,” she says.

President Joe Biden’s efforts to lessen American dependency on fossil fuels is killing American jobs minorities depend on, Jackson says.

Jackson joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to explain why the president’s energy agenda is so harmful to African Americans, and what the president should do to stimulate energy growth across the nation.
