Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt  recently proposed eliminating federal tax credits for wind and solar power  arguing that  they  should âstand on  their  own and compete against coal and natural gas and other sourcesâ as opposed to âbeing propped up by tax incentives and other types of credits....â
Stand on  their  own?
 Pruitt  surely must be aware that fossil fuels have been feasting at the government trough for at least 100 years. Renewables  by comparison  have received support only since the mid-1990s and  until recently  have had to subsist on scraps.
Perhaps a review of the facts can set  Administrator Pruitt  straight. Thereâs a strong case to be made that Congress should terminate subsidies for fossil fuels and extend them for renewables  not the other way around.
A new study by Oil Change International brings us up-to-date. Published earlier this month  it found that federal subsidies in 2015 and 2016 averaged $10.9 billion a year for the oil and gas industry and $3.8 billion for the coal industry. By contrast  the wind industryâs so-called production tax credit  renewed by Congress in December 2015  amounted to $3.3 billion last year  according to a Congress Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) estimate. Unlike the fossil fuel industryâs permanent subsidies  Congress has allowed the wind tax credit to expire six times in the last 20 years  and  it  is now set to decline incrementally until ending in 2020. Similarly  Congress fixed the solar industryâs investment tax credit at 30 percent of a projectâs cost through 2019  but reduced  it  to 10 percent for commercial projects and zeroed  it  out for residences by the end of 2021. The JCT estimates that the solar credit amounted to a $2.4-billion tax break last year. Totaling it up  fossil fuels â at $14.7 billion â still received two-and-a-half times more in federal support than solar and wind in 2016.

[Q]: Former Miss America Mallory Hagan  hopes the email scandal polluting the pageant âsignals the reinventionâ of the competition moving forward   she  told âGood Morning America.â
âHindsight is always 20-20 â  Hagan   who was crowned the winner of the 2013 pageant winner  told GMA when asked if  she âd witnessed demeaning behavior first-hand.  She  added that itâs essential now to look ahead â not in the rear-view.
Asked if the scandal marks the pageantâs demise or the reinvention   Hagan  said: âI hope it signals the reinvention ... I hope that weâre starting a larger conversation â  she  added.
The focus of that conversation is âabout how weâre going to move forward in the future. This is an opportunity to see how women can come together  support each other  rise up  take over the things that they want to see happen â  she  said.

 Hagan  singled out Brent Adams  the former pageant employee who spoke out about the emails  âthe unsung hero. He stood up for me; he stood up for all these women.â
As  she  expressed gratitude for his support and that of fans   she  said that mea culpas from pageant honchos involved in the derogatory emails isnât âthe point.â
