It's that time of year again. Now that our Congressmen think they're safe from electoral consequences, wind industry lobbyists are aggressively pushing to revive their favorite subsidy, the wind production tax credit (PTC).

The PTC is a key part of President Obama and Majority Leader Reid's attack on affordable energy, from natural gas and coal to nuclear power - an attack that will prove costly for hard-working Americans. Our legislators need to know you oppose subsidies for special interests like industrialized wind.

Two more years of these wind subsidies would cost American families over $13.3 billion. If Big Wind gets its way and makes these subsidies permanent, that $13.3 billion will be coming out of your pockets for years to come.
