Protect clean energy tax credits in the IRA

To: Sen. Schiff, Rep. Panetta, Sen. Padilla

From: A constituent in Santa Cruz, CA

May 28, 2025

The clean energy tax credits in the Inflation Reduction Act are being eliminated in the reconciliation bill to cover the costs of the Trump-Musk tax scam. I want your office to do whatever you can to protect these clean-energy credits. What’s being proposed instead is a tax hike that would raise family energy bills - not what we should be doing, and certainly not to benefit billionaires. NERA Consulting has estimated that abandoning these tax cuts will force electricity prices almost 10% higher over the next four years. It will also cost jobs: Energy Innovation predicts getting rid of these credits will kill 800,000 jobs. Again, these job losses and higher energy prices will only happen to benefit billionaires and the fossil-fuel industry. Getting rid of the IRA tax credits will take money and jobs from regular people. I want you to vehemently oppose it.
