Mike Levin Delivers House Floor Speech Calling on Senate to Preserve Clean Energy Tax Credits that Lower Costs & Create Jobs Rep. Levin speaks about how eliminating clean energy tax cuts will raise energy costs Washington, D.C .- Today, Rep. Mike Levin (CA-49) delivered a speech on the House Floor urging the Senate to block the passage of the House Republicans’ “Big Ugly Bill,” highlighting how the bill’s elimination of clean energy tax cuts would raise energy costs for American households. Watch the full speech here . Full remarks below. “Mr. Speaker, I rise today to speak out against the “Big Ugly Bill,” which even Elon Musk has called, and I quote, ‘a disgusting abomination.’ “The Big Ugly Bill undermines the programs millions of Americans rely on to survive, like health care and food assistance. But perhaps less discussed is that it will INCREASE your energy bills. “Right now, 80 million Americans are struggling to pay their electricity bills, and according to a recent report in the New York Times, this bill will make it worse. The Big Ugly Bill ends tax credits to promote clean energy and will increase household energy costs by up to $415 dollars a year. “On top of that, ending the tax credits will lead to thousands of job losses nationwide—red states blue states. This comes as demand for electricity is surging, driving up costs even more. “Everyone in this body talks a good game about lowering costs, but when the time came to actually do something about costs, my House colleagues voted to put Big Oil CEOs over the American people. “I urge my friends in the Senate to fix this mess and actually lower energy prices for the American people. “Thank you, and I yield back.” ### Print Email Share Tweet Next Article Previous Article About Serving You News Contact Issues Privacy Policy Twitter Icon Facebook Icon Youtube Icon Bluesky Icon
