“I rise today to call for a vote on my amendment to protect critical investment and production tax credits for solar and wind projects. For our Nation to be truly energy independent and to be able to compete with China, we must be a global leader on the energy sources of the future, like solar and wind. But these projects just don't happen overnight. By the time many of these projects are ready to come online, the tax credits to help make them financially viable will have expired because of this bill. This bill will kill the clean energy industry, costing thousands of good-paying jobs, and will raise energy costs for hard-working families. My amendment gives these industries the runway they need. I urge all of my colleagues to support this amendment.”
