What happened to Cash for Caulkers?

Homeowners, home service providers, banks, manufacturers, heck everyone other than extreme Conservatives and Libertarians were excited when the whispers of a Cash for Caulkers program was in the making.

It would provide tax benefits and more efficient homes for homeowners. More work for home service companies. More jobs for workers. More cash flow into our economy, etc...

However, word on the street is that the implementation of the Cash for Caulkers program has been put on the back burner. Despite an immediate need for a jolt to the housing industry to assist in an economic recovery, politics reared its ugly head and pushed this program aside so that the politician's full attention could be focused on the Health Program Bill.

So send a quick email to your local State Representative or Congressman and urge them to pass the Cash for Caulkers bill so we can create a healthier living environment and save money on our energy bills and hopefully at the same time work our way out of this recession.
