“Texas’ Solar for All program was intended to bring solar panels and batteries to low-income neighborhoods and create jobs by training workers to install the technology.

… The broader Solar for All coalition, which had planned to operate in 10 municipalities around the state, has been left reeling from the cancellation of a program created specifically to reduce household energy bills.

Kash Patel is the anti-DEI hire (using the right wing’s definition of “DEI hire”). Instead of being someone who is incompetent for the job and hired because they are not Caucasian, he is not Caucasian and was hired because he is incompetent for the job.
