GovInfo lists H.R. 7977 as introduced in the House on March 18, 2026 with Mr. Goldman of New York among the cosponsors. The bill includes sections on restoring low-cost clean energy tax credits, streamlining distributed energy permitting, community solar, public land renewable energy development, offshore renewable deployment, and a transmission investment tax credit. Section 305 would establish a Community Solar Consumer Choice Program and direct DOE to support financing, subscriptions, and operation of community solar programs.

The mirrored official House release says Reps. Brad Schneider and Gus Bilirakis led a bipartisan letter urging the State Department and U.S. International Development Finance Corporation to prioritize the Great Sea Interconnector. It states that the letter was also signed by Reps. Jake Auchincloss, Dan Goldman, Craig Goldman, and Haley Stevens, and that the project would create clean, reliable, bidirectional power flows between Europe and the Eastern Mediterranean.
Assessments
Goldman took same-term federal actions aligned with the promise, including cosponsoring H.R. 7977 with clean-energy tax credits, distributed-energy permitting, community solar, and transmission provisions; introducing an amendment to shift DOE funding toward renewable energy; and leading or signing letters supporting offshore wind and clean-power infrastructure. However, the key legislative vehicle remained in committee and the funding amendment was rejected, with no evidence that a new federal incentive program or community/public power production policy was enacted because of his work. This supports concrete effort and partial progress, not full delivery.
Goldman took concrete same-term actions aligned with the promise, including proposing to shift DOE funding from fossil-fuel research to renewable energy, leading a letter to support offshore wind permitting and funding, and publicly backing major offshore-wind infrastructure tied to public-private renewable power development. However, the strongest legislative proposal was rejected, and the evidence does not show that he successfully enacted or secured a new incentive program or clearly advanced community/public power production as a delivered policy outcome. The promise is therefore partially fulfilled through substantial advocacy and legislative effort, but not fully delivered.
