Another ‘Cash for’ package?

It looks like the success of the Cash for projects might expand to include insulation and water heaters.

President Barack Obama has announced proposed plans for HOMESTAR, a $6 billion program aimed at creating jobs in some industries — like construction and manufacturing – by giving consumers extra incentives to buy energy efficient appliances, systems and insulation.

The amount of the rebates is larger than previous rebates offered. Those who qualify can get up to $3,000.

This plan will need to be approved by Congress to go into effect.
