WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Brian Fitzpatrick (PA-1) today released the following statement regarding the Senate’s work on the energy tax credit provisions in H.R. 1:

“The Senate’s ongoing strategic and responsible approach of the energy tax credits in H.R. 1 is essential to strengthening American energy independence, accelerating innovation, creating good-paying jobs, protecting taxpayers, and sharpening our competitive edge against our global adversaries.

This is how we secure our future—economically, environmentally, and geopolitically.”

Earlier this month, Congressman Fitzpatrick led a bipartisan letter with Congresswoman Jen Kiggans (VA-02), urging Senate leadership to adopt targeted, commonsense reforms to key clean energy provisions in the House-passed version of H.R. 1. The lawmakers outlined serious concerns over provisions that could stall investment and undermine domestic energy development—including abrupt credit terminations, overly restrictive Foreign Entity of Concern (FEOC) requirements, and limits on credit transferability.

The letter warned that, without strategic revisions, these policies could delay or cancel critical energy projects, erode American competitiveness, and increase costs for families and businesses. The bipartisan group called on the Senate to pursue practical improvements that protect taxpayers, support workforce stability, and ensure continued investment in clean, reliable American energy.
