This bill would repeal three parts of Public Law 117-169: the high-efficiency electric home rebate program (section 50122), the State-based home energy efficiency contractor training grants (section 50123), and assistance for adoption of the latest and zero building energy codes (section 50131). It would also rescind the unobligated balances of any amounts previously made available under sections 50122 and 50131. The bill includes a conforming amendment to remove language referring to the rebate program from another provision. The measure was introduced in the House on July 25, 2025 by Representative Craig Goldman with cosponsors Jake Ellzey and Dan Crenshaw. It was received in the Senate and referred to the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources.
If enacted, the specific federal programs named in the bill would no longer be authorized. That means the high-efficiency electric home rebates, the listed contractor training grants, and the named building energy code assistance would be repealed. The bill also cancels any unobligated federal money that had been set aside for two of those programs. The text does not say how many people, households, or organizations would be affected or when changes would take effect.
No publicly available information. The bill text instructs rescission of unobligated balances for amounts made available under sections 50122 and 50131 but does not state dollar amounts, nor does it include a cost estimate or projected savings.
