WASHINGTON (June 10, 2026) – New ads launched this week in Ohio feature electrical workers urging their senators to help preserve clean energy tax credits that are growing good-paying union jobs across the state. The ads are a joint effort by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) and the NRDC Action Fund.
Congress is currently debating ending the credits as part of a massive reconciliation bill sought by President Trump and Republican leaders, but a growing chorus of business and labor leaders say rolling back the credits would kill jobs and scuttle billions of dollars of manufacturing investments announced since the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act in 2022.
“Clean energy tax credits are putting IBEW members to work in every state—and there are still hundreds of billions of dollars in projects ahead,” IBEW International President Kenneth W. Cooper said in a statement last month. “Stripping these investments now hands the advantage to foreign competitors, particularly China, and tells American workers their jobs don’t matter.”
“Every lawmaker supporting this bill is voting for higher energy bills, fewer jobs, and bigger tax burdens on everyday Americans—drivers, homeowners, manufacturers,” said Alexandra Adams, chief policy advocacy officer at the NRDC Action Fund.
The six-figure digital ad campaign launched Monday throughout Ohio. View the ads here:
