| AWEA Legislative Update: Senate fails to pass 1-year Production Tax Credit extension |
| PTC extension fails by 1 vote. Contact your Senators regarding their vote. | Take Action! |
|
| On February 6, 2008, the key vote on the Amendment (S.Amdt. 3983) to Economic Stimulus bill (H.R.5140) that would have extended the Production Tax Credit (PTC) for an additional 1-year fell 1 vote short of reaching the 60 votes needed to overcome a filibuster. In a procedural move, Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV) changed his vote from Yes to No in order to bring up the legislation later; therefore, the final count on the vote was 58-41. Please contact your Senators to thank the ones who supported the PTC extension and convey your unhappiness to those who voted against the Amendment to the Economic Stimulus bill with a 1-year extension of the PTC. A thank you letter will appear if your one of your Senators voted YES on the amendment. A letter expressing your disappoint will appear if he or she voted NO on the amendment.
