Extreme opposition to some of these provisions in the package. Id like to specifically respond to claims that some of my colleagues have made about wind energy and the wind production tax credit. Im sympathetic to the argument that the tax code has gotten too cluttered with too many special interest provisions. Thats the reason many of us for a long period of time have been clamoring for tax reform. But just because we havent cleaned up the tax code in a comprehensive way doesnt mean that we should pull the rug out from under domestic Renewable Energy production. Doing so would cost jobs, harm our economy and harm the environment and even enhance problems for national security. Im glad to defend the wind production tax credit and wind energy. Wind Energy Provides more than 4 of u. S. Electricity, supports 80,000 american jobs, spurred 105 billion in private investment in the u. S. Just since 2005. And that source of energy displaces more expensive and more polluting sources of energy,
