Tonko Weatherization Bill Advances Out of Energy & Commerce Committee
Request additional funding for the Weatherization Assistance Program in the upcoming Fiscal Year 2027 President’s Budget Request.
Assessments
Paul Tonko appears to have materially advanced weatherization policy through committee movement on a weatherization bill and a letter seeking more Weatherization Assistance Program funding, but the broader promise to expand home weatherization for low-income families is not yet fully delivered. The evidence supports meaningful progress, not final enactment or program expansion.
