38 Republicans call for ‘full repeal’ of Democrats’ energy tax credits
- On May 1, 2025, a group of 38 Republican members of the House addressed a letter to Jason Smith, chair of the Ways and Means Committee, urging the complete elimination of energy-related tax incentives established by the Inflation Reduction Act.
- This call arose amid internal GOP conflict over whether to entirely remove the $1 trillion in green subsidies spanning the next decade.
- The debate involves some Republicans defending credits tied to $110 billion in investments and 83,000 jobs in their districts, while others accuse the IRA of inflating costs and harming grid reliability.
- The letter stated, "leaving some of the act intact would 'undermine America'," reflecting concerns that partial repeal could preserve the entire green agenda.
- The dispute complicates efforts to pass a budget reconciliation bill advancing Trump’s tax policies and may critically affect the GOP's ability to fulfill campaign promises on energy.
