Tell members of Congress to keep energy tax credits

From the most recent study from the Yale Program on Climate Communication and the George Mason Center for Climate Change Communication, a large majority of voters oppose eliminating programs related to global warming. Yet Congresswoman Marianette Miller-Meeks voted in favor of the Big Beautiful Bill, which cuts clean energy tax credits that would strengthen Iowa’s economy while strengthening renewable energy (and thus reducing our energy bills by the next decade).

That bill is now working its way through the Senate via a process called budget reconciliation, and will eventually have to go back to the House for a final “tweak.” Let Congresswoman Marianette Miller-Meeks and Sens. Grassley and Ernst know that we need to keep those clean energy tax credits to continue Iowa’s reputation as a leader in clean energy, and to keep Iowa’s economy strong.
