New Bill Could Raise Price Of Gas August 28, 2009The U.S. House of Representatives recently passed the deceptively titled “American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009,” also known as the Waxman/Markey/Pelosi bill. This climate legislation, in some form, will be before the U.S. Senate early this fall. If this type of climate legislation becomes law, it will have enormous negative impact on the economy, the consumer and the refining industry. We are all concerned about climate change and measuring carbon dioxide levels, but the American Clean Energy and Security Act is not the way to address the issue. The hidden tax on commodities imposed by this legislation will lead to a significant increase in the price of gasoline and other energy sources, and more than a million job losses in our already crippled economy - with no measurable improvement on global climate change. Please be a Voice for Energy by sending a letter to your legislator today. For more information go to: Voices For Energy
