The Build Back Better bill which passed the US House of Respresentatives in
December 2021 is log-jammed in the US Senate due two objections by two
Democratic Senators - Joe Manchin (W VA), and Krysten Sinema (AZ).
Manchin who derailed the proposal two weeks ago is back to the negotiating
table. Sinema appears to oppose on all grounds.

Subject: What's in Build Back Better for Solar Industry?
Can a solar policy researcher provide insight into what is in the Build Back Better bill that affects the Solar industry?
I **heard** that Community Solar projects that incorporate workforce training could receive 40% investment tax credit, which would a compelling offer.
