Stop Cap and Trade Legislation NOW!


Contact TODAY! 202-224-3121

Congress is preparing to increase YOUR cost of living and effectively put 1 MILLION Americans out of work. The "Cap and Trade" bill that is currently in the House will have an adverse effect on every tax paying American. Presently, Nancy Pelosi along with House Democrats are trying to push this legislation through as early as Friday, June 26th.

This power grab by the government, described in a previous blog , will continue to further manipulate an already over-regulated energy industry. If you are smart enough to lick a postage stamp you should be able to figure out who this tax will be passed on to.... the CONSUMER.

In addition to the extra cost, which has been estimated as high as $3,800 per year per household, over 1 million Americans are expected to lose their jobs due to the restrictions that this legislation will impose. Our Congress is seeking to fix an alleged problem that has been discredited by over 31,478 scientists. Interesting enough, 3,803 of these scientists are specialist in the fields of atmospheric, earth and environmental sciences.


If this legislation passes you WILL PAY MORE for gasoline, electric services, as well as higher costs for goods due to transportation fees. If you work in the energy service field, you could see yourself unemployed or regulated right out of a job. I have stated this time and again, the Cap and Trade legislation has the potential to be the greatest scam ever played on the American people, some may laugh at my comments and that is fine. But I guarantee that if this legislation passes, that in the next 10 years, the standard of living in America will diminish greatly and the cost of energy will become outrageous.

Common sense should tell everyone that if the cost of energy increases, that it will become more difficult for the average American to consume energy. Notice, I said "average American," Cap and Trade will allow those with larger than life incomes to waste, use and pollute in greater quantities than before, .....because they will be able to afford it, without penalty. In other words pollution is baaaaaaddddd unless you can afford it! There is something terribly wrong with legislation that is designed to "save the planet," when that same legislation allows the Al Gores of the world to burn more fuel daily than 10 American homes would in the course of a year.


If you are concerned about this legislation, I implore you to call the government switchboard, ask to be transferred to your congressman and tell him to VOTE NO, on the Cap and Trade legislation. Dont wait, every minute counts.......(202) 224-3121
