Although the IRA, which was signed into law by President Biden in August, directed the Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to provide this guidance by the end of 2022, a recent announcement reports that guidance will not be made available until March 2023.\n\n\u201cAs you know, the IRA extends the Section 30D tax credit for electric vehicles (EVs) and a new Section 45W tax credit for commercial EVs,\u201d wrote the lawmakers. \u201cHowever, in expanding and creating these tax credits to incentivize the deployment of more EVs, Congress included in the IRA new domestic manufacturing and assembly requirements to ensure that our efforts to combat climate change are done in a way that expands our nation\u2019s domestic energy manufacturing capabilities, reduces costs for consumers, creates millions of good-paying jobs for American workers, and secures our energy independence.\u201d\n\nRepresentatives Wiley Nickel (NC-13), Lou Correa (CA-46), Henry Cuellar (TX-28), Vicente Gonzalez (TX-34), and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (OR-03) joined Rep. Golden in sending the letter.\n\n\u201cAny delay in the full implementation of these tax credits will only further our reliance on our adversaries, notably Russia and China, for energy and manufacturing resources while enabling major corporations to continue to take advantage of tax loopholes that allow them to offshore American manufacturing jobs\u2026 Consequently, we urge you to delay implementation of the 30D and 45W tax credits until the guidance has been released that aligns with the intent of the IRA,\u201d the members continued.\n\nRead the letter in full here.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-07T23:08:17Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://golden.house.gov/media/press-releases/golden-calls-on-biden-administration-to-delay-new-ev-tax-credits-until-american-manufacturing-and-assembly-requirements-guidance-is-released"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.6185581441968679, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
