Washington, D.C. - In response to Speaker McCarthy’s inclusion of the Inflation Reduction Act’s clean energy tax incentives on his proposed list of demands to raise the debt limit, the Solar Energy Manufacturing for America (SEMA) Coalition issued the following statement from Executive Director Mike Carr:
“The clean energy manufacturing tax credits have already spurred billions of dollars of investments and the promise of millions of new good-paying jobs, throughout the country. Repealing these popular clean energy incentives would be an extraordinarily dangerous business proposition that would doom the United States’ ability to establish a resilient, domestic solar supply chain.”
