Swing-seat Republicans to Senate: Save energy tax credits

Thirteen House Republicans, all but one of whom represent a battleground district, issued an open letter to the Senate on Friday asking for a bailout on the energy tax credit.

All of these members voted for the House’s version of the reconciliation package. But in their letter, these Republicans said they “remain deeply concerned by several provisions, including those which would abruptly terminate several credits just 60 days after enactment for projects that have not yet begun construction.”
