Some House Ways and Means Committee Republicans have introduced legislation to revive incentives the GOP took a sledgehammer to in last year’s budget reconciliation bill.
Led by Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-Pa.), the legislation would restore various tax credits for renewable energy and efficiency — some of which are expiring soon.
“If America wants to lower costs, strengthen its energy supply, and build with confidence for the future, then we need a policy framework strong enough to support the scale of that work,” Fitzpatrick said.
“That means certainty. When the rules are unstable, projects stall, hiring slows, investment hesitates, and the people counting on progress pay the price,” said Fitzpatrick, among Congress’ most environmentally minded Republicans.
