Electrification Caucus Co-Chairs Call For Action On Climate, Household Electrification Measures
WASHINGTON - As Congress debates a path forward on Build Back Better, Electrification Caucus Co-Chairs U.S. Senators Martin Heinrich (D-N.M.) and Tina Smith (D-Minn.) and U.S. Representatives Paul Tonko (D-N.Y.) and Kathy Castor (D-Fla.) will host a virtual briefing today, Wednesday, February 16 at 4 p.m. ET to discuss why Congress must make progress to advance policies to accelerate widespread electrification, including making household electrification easy and affordable through consumer rebates.
Electrifying homes, commercial buildings, and vehicles has broad support and is one of the most practical actions we can take to address the climate crisis, lower costs for American families, create jobs, and improve indoor air quality.
The Electrification Caucus Co-Chairs will be joined by Mayor of Houston Sylvester Turner, CEO of Rewiring America Ari Matusiak, and CEO of Redfin Glenn Kelman.
