Title: Advocates Urge Senate to Protect Clean Energy Tax Credits Amid House Bill Concerns
Tim Miller, a volunteer with Citizens’ Climate Lobby, has raised alarm over the House’s recent legislation that significantly alters clean energy tax credits, warning it could lead to increased household energy costs and hinder critical investments in clean energy. Miller recalls House Speaker Mike Johnson’s advice for a careful approach to managing these credits, emphasizing that the current legislative changes threaten to undermine the economic and environmental progress in Montana and across the U.S.
These tax credits are vital for stimulating private investments, lowering energy costs, and generating jobs in manufacturing and construction, all while bolstering Montana’s position in the global clean-tech arena. Additionally, local county commissioners emphasize the importance of these projects in funding schools and infrastructure through generated tax revenue.
With the bill heading to the Senate, Miller is urging Senators Daines and Sheehy to heed Johnson’s call for a more measured approach, advocating for the preservation of these essential tax credits. Their support is crucial to safeguarding America’s clean energy future and securing thousands of jobs annually for Montanans.
