“Any Republican in congress that votes for this BETTER be run out of office on a rail in November.”
Who needs a vote? Re-interpret EPA rules to introduce it as an impact fee. Once the money starts rolling in, they will never get rid of it.
Congress need not be involved at all, if we are following the template.
One more reason to get rid of the EPA...
Put it in now while the price is low, people won’t care that much. Then when the price goes up... the ‘fee’ is still there. Pretty cool.
