under ‘criminal investigation,’ EDA says in since-redacted court filing

By Matt Friedman and Katherine Landergan, June 24, 2020

"Holtec International, which received one of the biggest in history, is under criminal investigation, according to a legal brief filed Monday by the New Jersey Economic Development Authority.

"The brief was in response to a lawsuit Holtec — an technology company — filed against the EDA in March for holding up a $26 million payment on its $260 million tax incentive to build a facility in Camden. The delay was because of an allegedly false answer Holtec gave on its 2014 tax credit application.

“Holtec’s — which include its failure to disclose a prior government debarment by the Tennessee Valley Authority (the ‘’) for bribing an official of that agency — first came to light during an investigation conducted by the Governor’s Task Force on the Economic Development Authority’s Tax Incentive Program, and they are now the subject of an ongoing criminal investigation,” reads the June 22 brief by attorney Ricardo Solano."

Weren’t there some major tax incentives passed late last year in the U.S. for home energy efficiency improvements, maybe even refundable credits?

I seem to recall this from last winter but haven’t heard anything about it since.

We’re considering some improvements, so I’d would greatly appreciate any info you have experience with this! TIA

"A new study by Evolved Energy Research casts compelling insight into the heated debate around the IRA 45V clean hydrogen tax credits. The study finds that the three pillars of 1) new clean supply, 2) hourly matching and 3) deliverability will support substantial deployment of clean hydrogen in this decade. The study also concludes that all three pillars are the minimum guardrails against large carbon emissions increases from hydrogen production and derailing U.S. climate progress. The study – which can be added to the pile of evidence in favor of the three pillars—further crumbles unsubstantiated claims by proponents of looser rules that the three pillars will hobble industry growth. Those unsubstantiated claims are, yet again, proven to be resoundingly FALSE."

I got a letter saying my Child Tax Credits is ending and I have to switch to Universal Credit by August.

Stupidly, I switched right away.

What was I thinking?!

Now they want a refund due to overpayment of CTC.

Universal Credit is brutal and harsh. I will be cancelling my claim because I'm not in a position to return to work right now.

I can't go back to CTC. So I will get nothing from now on.

Among pregnant mothers, each 10 percentage-point increase in the generosity of state EITC relative to the federal EITC was associated with a lower prevalence of binge drinking prior to conception.

were angry the party they voted for was giving companies tax credits to take farmland to build .

Rep. Ashley Hinson said she'd "take a look at" the millions in the companies would get from the pipelines. But she also noted the state was "like it or not," dependent on the industry.

(She's also gotten thousands in from the head of one of the pipeline companies.)
