Richard Neal, Chair, Ways and Means Committee, House of Representatives. Hon. Bobby Scott, Chair, Education & Labor Committee, House of Representatives. Hon. Kevin Brady, Ranking Member, Ways and Means Committee, House of Representatives. Hon. Virginia Foxx, Ranking Member, Education & Labor Committee, House of Representatives.

The Legacy IRA Act was originally introduced as H.R. 2909 by Representatives Don Beyer (D-VA-08) and Mike Kelly (R-PA-16).
