Clean Stove Act Introduced

Clean Stove Act Introduced
On November 15, Rep. John Salazar (D-CO) introduced the Clean Stove Act of 2007, H.R. 4244. This legislation would authorize a $500 tax credit to encourage consumers to replace their old wood stoves with a new technology EPA-certified wood stove or a pellet stove.
H.R. 4244 is cosponsored by Rep. Michael Michaud (D-ME), Rep. Cathy McMorris-Rodgers (R-WA), Rep. Ron Kind (D-WI), and Rep. Mark Udall (D-CO).
Sen. Mike Crapo (R-ID) is expected to introduce the Senate companion bill soon.
