CIRCUIT Act
Key: what the circles and colors mean
Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:
Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.
Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.
Not yet voted on. This bill is still a proposal: it hasn't reached a floor vote, and its text can change in committee or on the floor before any vote.

What it does: CRS summary · Introduced in Senate · Feb 6, 2025
Credit Incentives for Resilient Critical Utility Infrastructure and Transformers Act or the CIRCUIT Act
This bill expands the advanced manufacturing production tax credit to include up to 10% of the cost to produce transformers that have an input voltage of 34.5 kilovolts or less, have an output voltage of 600 volts or less, and are rated for operation at a frequency of 60 hertz (i.e., distribution transformers).
As background, the advanced manufacturing production tax credit (part of the general business tax credit) allows a tax credit for certain component parts (e.g., battery cells, solar modules, and inverters) and critical minerals (e.g., aluminum, lithium, and nickel) that are produced in the United States or a U.S. possession and sold generally to an unrelated third party for use in clean energy equipment. (Some exceptions apply.)
