Act now! Congress considering 1603 extension in payroll tax bill
Peter,
I wanted to follow up on the message we sent last week. We need your help in our efforts to extend the 1603 Treasury Program, an important federal incentive that is successfully driving growth in America’s solar industry.
Please take a moment to contact your Senators and urge them to include an extension of the successful 1603 Treasury Program in the payroll tax package. Be sure to remind them that a failure to extend the 1603 Treasury Program will hurt small businesses and stifle job creation.

The 1603 program is hands-down one of the most successful policies ever enacted to deploy renewable energy. In only two years, it has generated over $22 billion in private sector investment to jump-start more than 22,000 renewable energy projects across the country, which has created tens of thousands of new American jobs. According to EuPD Research, extending the program would support 37,000 additional jobs and deploy 2,000 additional megawatts of solar capacity – enough to power 400,000 homes – in the next year alone.
Please take a few moments to contact your Senators TODAY. We need to stand together to let Congress know that extending the 1603 program will help make sure solar keeps working for America.
