Truth Analysis
Analysis Summary:
The article's claim about the Trump administration issuing restrictions on renewable energy is contradicted by multiple sources indicating actions against renewable energy incentives and projects by the House and Senate.

- Verification Source #3: The White House is ending market-distorting subsidies for unreliable energy sources like wind and solar.
- Verification Source #4: A Senate GOP megabill would impose a new tax on solar and wind projects.
- Assessment: Contradicted. The claim attributes actions to the Trump administration that sources attribute to the House and Senate.
