Bill Caption

Urging Congress to enact legislation to expand and extend the current federal tax credit for carbon capture, utilization, and storage under Section 45Q of the Internal Revenue Code.

Bill Analysis

SR 712 would urge the U.S Congress to expand and extend the tax credit for carbon capture and utilization, provide sufficient appropriations to the U.S. Department of Energy for research, and support policies that increase operational efficiency of electric-generating units and the preservation of a fuel-diverse electric generation portfolio.

Vote Recommendation Notes

While we oppose the offering of tax credits to certain groups over others, this resolution simply urges the U.S. Congress to support certain policies. We remain neutral.
