This info. was posted in another thread, so I have taken the liberty to post it in a new thread so that everyone could find it.
The House Ways and Means Committee is in the process of marking up a federal tax credit for energy efficient homes. It is more critical now than ever to contact your representatives that serve on the House Ways and Means Committee and Senate Finance Committee and let them know of the key
principles that should be included in any residential energy efficiency tax credit legislation. To down load a copy of the legislation that is being used as the basis for the mark up, go to
http://waysandmeans.house.gov/fullcomm/107cong/energy/hr2511sub.pdf
We have already achieved a victory. The House Ways and Means Committee has
removed the option on builder self certification. There are more issues
that need to be addressed to create an effective bill.
The Alliance to Save Energy, Natural Resources Defense Council and the
American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy have developed an
agreement on what a tax credit for new homes should contain. RESNET supports these
principles. Please share these with your Congressional delegation.
Mailing addresses for members of the Senate Finance Committee can be
found at http://finance.senate.gov/fin-comm.htm
