On March 18, Congressman Chris Van Hollen (D-MD), Assistant to the Speaker, introduced the National Home Energy Savings Revolving Fund Act, which will enable over one million households across the country to achieve significant, cost-effective energy savings. The legislation will create a National Home Energy Saving Revolving Fund to allow local governments to provide homeowners with zero-interest loans to make certified home energy savings improvements. These loans are then paid back at a net savings to participating homeowners through their property taxes.
