But left-wing, out-of-state groups – some even backed by George Soros – are fighting back. However, Energy Alabama’s opposition comes as the group has received funding from a network of left-wing aligned organizations and progressive funding pipelines. In 2023, Energy Alabama received $150,000.00 from the Tides Foundation. Energy Alabama has also received support from groups including Alabama Forward, Multiplier, and the WestWind Foundation. As the bills advance through the legislature, it’s shaping up to be a State House showdown between Alabama families and out-of-state puppets peddling Obama-era eco-scams.
