[Solar and Storage Industry @SEIA]

Solar is supporting farm incomes across the country... with a far smaller footprint than comparable forms of development.

America’s economic edge will be built or lost on energy.

That’s why we built the Clean Economy Project.

We’re unleashing the clean energy innovations to drive a new era of economic growth, industrial strength, and shared prosperity.

Let’s go. 🔗https://t.co/OQVDgOk7Jr

Yesterday, the Senate failed to pass a bill that would extend SBIR/STTR for one year. As of today, these programs have officially lapsed. CEBN President @L_Abramson commented:

“We are incredibly disappointed that authorization for the SBIR/STTR programs has lapsed... (1/2)

[House Committee on Small Business @HouseSmallBiz]

SBIR and STTR programs have been vital to keeping small businesses at the forefront of American innovation. The House did our job, passing a year-long extension of the programs to ensure certainty for our nation’s greatest innovators.

Last night, Chairman @RepRWilliams—along with @HSBCDems Ranking Member @NydiaVelazquez, @HouseScience Chairman @RepBrianBabin, and @ScienceDems Ranking Member @RepZoeLofgren—issued the following statement on the programs expiring.

[Ed Markey @SenMarkey]

The SBIR & STTR programs fuel America’s innovation engine. Cutting successful small businesses out would be like cutting your top scorer before a big game.

We can’t decimate science, jobs, & security—Congress must reauthorize SBIR/STTR now.

[Clean Energy Business Network @CleanEnergyBiz]

If the Senate fails to act by tomorrow night, the SBIR and STTR programs will lapse on October 1st.

The House has already passed H.R. 5100 to extend the program for one year while negotiations on a long-term reauthorization continue.

[Clean Energy Business Network @CleanEnergyBiz]

Saving energy while growing the economy is good business. CEBN is proud to join 150+ US companies in affirming our support for the @UNFCCC goal of doubling the global rate of energy efficiency improvements.

[Chuck Grassley @ChuckGrassley]

Energy dominance means ALL of the above & all of the below energy components Unleash American energy don’t suffocate it thru extra govt regs

[Sen. Lisa Murkowski @lisamurkowski]

Taking electrons off the grid is just as fundamentally misguided as keeping energy in the ground.

We need it all, and our policies must reflect that.

[E2 @e2org]

“Businesses are reacting to the Senate’s proposal… that would drastically scale back the very tax credits that had been driving an American energy and manufacturing boom.”

Ohio alone has $7B in investments and 5,000 jobs at stake.

Powerful remarks from @SenThomTillis - making clear the Senate bill will create major problems in the energy market, lead to job losses and project failures. Impacting the likes of @Walmart and other major US companies.
