1. Cap and Trade is not a tax. It is disingenuous to suggest it is.
2. Cap and Trade is a market mechanism, first championed by conservatives.
3. It works.
4. The only option left to this government if it does not want to use a market mechanism is regulatory controls if it is serious about actually reducing GHG emissions to the degree we need to. This is ironic. This is an emergency. Please behave like this is an emergency.
5. The introduction of this Act is irresponsible and dangerous.
6. So many excellent projects were being funded by this. Badly needed projects, like repairs to schools that would save us energy in the future. This is inexcusable.

Do not proceed to enact this Act.
