    August 10, 2021 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Steny Hoyer Speaker Majority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader Hoyer, As we advance legislation to rebuild and renew America’s infrastructure, we encourage you to continue your commitment to combating the climate crisis by including critical clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation tax incentives in the upcoming infrastructure package. These incentives will play a critical role in America’s economic recovery, alleviate some of the pollution impacts that have been borne by disadvantaged communities, and help the country build back better and cleaner. The clean energy sector was projected to add 175,000 jobs in 2020 but the COVID-19 pandemic upended the industry and roughly 300,000 clean energy workers were still out of work in the beginning of 2021.1 Clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation tax incentives are an important part of bringing these workers back. It is critical that these policies support strong labor standards and domestic manufacturing. The importance of clean energy tax policy is made even more apparent and urgent with record- high temperatures in the Pacific Northwest, unprecedented drought across the West, and the impacts of tropical storms felt up and down the East Coast. We ask that the infrastructure package prioritize inclusion of a stable, predictable, and long-term tax platform that: Provides long-term extensions and expansions to the Production Tax Credit and Investment Tax Credit to meet President Biden’s goal of a carbon pollution-free power sector by 2035; Extends and modernizes tax incentives for commercial and residential energy efficiency improvements and residential electrification; Extends and modifies incentives for clean transportation options and alternative fuel infrastructure; and Supports domestic clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation manufacturing.

    April 2, 2020 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi Speaker, U.S. House of Representatives H-232, United States Capitol Washington, DC 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi: We are grateful for your tireless work to address the needs of all Americans struggling during the COVID-19 pandemic, and for your understanding of the tremendous burdens that have been borne by localities as they work to respond to this crisis and keep their populations safe. However, we are concerned that the COVID-19 relief packages considered thus far have not provided direct funding to stabilize smaller counties, cities, and towns—specifically, those with populations under 500,000. As such, we urge you to include direct stabilization funding to such localities in the next COVID-19 response bill, or to lower the threshold for direct funding through the Coronavirus Relief Fund to localities with smaller populations. Many of us represent districts containing no or few localities with populations above 500,000. Like their larger neighbors, though, these smaller counties, cities, and towns have faced enormous costs while responding to the COVID-19 pandemic. These costs include deploying timely public service announcements to keep Americans informed, rapidly activating emergency operations, readying employees for telework to keep services running, and more. This work is essential to keeping our constituents safe and mitigating the spread of the coronavirus as effectively as possible. We fear that, without targeted stabilization funding, smaller localities will be unable to continue providing these critical services to our constituents at the rate they are currently. We applaud you for including a $200 billion Coronavirus Relief Fund as part of H.R.

  • Takano, Mark (B
    Takano, Mark (b. 1970) Mark Takano. by Linda Rapp Image courtesy marktakano.com. Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2012 glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com In 2012 Mark Takano, a Japanese American from Riverside, California, became the first openly gay person of color elected to the United States House of Representatives. Takano's grandparents and parents were living in Riverside in 1942, when, by order of the federal government, they were taken from their homes and placed in internment camps for the duration of World War II. As a result of their confinement, family members lost property that they had owned, but after the war they returned to Riverside County and managed to start over. Despite the ugly history of discrimination that his family experienced, Mark Takano is a child of Riverside who would become its champion. Born there on December 10, 1970, he attended public schools and graduated as the valedictorian at La Sierra High School in 1979. He continued his education at Harvard, where he majored in government, with the intention of becoming a lawyer, perhaps one working for the Republican party. "My whole family is Republican, and I was a Republican all the way through college," he told Geoffrey J. Hoffman of the Harvard Crimson. "But," he added mischievously, "my Harvard education really had an impact. It truly made me smarter. I became a Democrat." Takano came to believe that Republicans had "lost their pragmatism" and were too "ideologically conservative, both economically and culturally." He noted examples of policies toward Central America, the "trickle-down" economic theory, restrictions on women's rights regarding reproduction, and the treatment of members of minority groups.
