Recently-appointed White House clean energy czar John Podesta has hired several officials who have advocated in favor of far-left energy and climate policies to join his team.
Podesta, who founded the progressive Washington, D.C.-based think tank Center for American Progress (CAP), has hired Kristina Costa, Alison Cassady and Joshua Peck to serve in the White House Office of Clean Energy Innovation and Implementation. The three officials have previously worked in private and public sector roles pushing climate policies and have past ties to Podesta.

Among its main tasks, Podesta's office will be implementing the programs and grants included in the Inflation Reduction Act, Democrats' $739 billion climate and tax bill passed over the summer. The legislation enables the federal government to distribute more than $350 billion worth of loans and grants to green energy projects nationwide.
The influential think tanks' reach has only expanded since its work on the Biden transition team. As of mid-2021, nearly 70 CAP employees moved from the group to the administration to fill key posts, Business Insider reported.
CAP president Patrick Gaspard, who previously acted as president of George Soros' Open Society Foundations, also enjoys a direct pipeline to the administration.
