Action this week to cotact Federal Representatives:
The Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 will be voted on within the week in the House of Representatives. It is not perfect. It is a compromise that we need to support. It would deliver funds for health and the biggest single climate investment thus far---$369 billion.
Call your Representatives today and ask them to act on health and climate:
Here are some highlights from the $369 billion in climate investments from the bill:
- Clean energy tax credits for wind and solar, EVs, efficiency upgrades, heat pumps, and much more
- More than $60 billion for environmental justice priorities
- Up to $60 billion for domestic clean energy manufacturing
- $27 billion to speed the development of emissions reductions technologies, especially in disadvantaged communities
We still have more to do to end giveaways to the fossil fuel industry and this bill includes some troubling provisions that are a reflection of the makeup of the U.S. Senate — something we must keep working on to ensure a future where all communities are safe from the threats of fossil fuel production and false climate solutions. IPL will work with our partners to ensure that this bill is able to deliver its full potential of climate benefits.
This is the most significant climate bill in history and will put our nation on the path to cut climate pollution emissions up to 44% by 2030 compared to 2005 levels, create millions of good paying clean energy jobs, invest in environmental justice, and reduce energy bills for working families across the country.
