Legislative Progress

✓ Filed
Review
Senate
House

Key Points

  • Congress is considering a plan to stop a new rule from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) about clean energy tax credits.
  • The IRS rule explains exactly when wind and solar projects must start construction to qualify for federal tax breaks before those programs end.
  • By blocking this rule, lawmakers want to prevent the IRS from enforcing these specific requirements on renewable energy companies.
  • This action could affect how much money wind and solar developers save on their taxes and how quickly new clean energy projects are built across the country.
