Pass 5 bills like this every day. Force the democrats to be the party of “NO”.

We’re lucky if we get one bill a month like this. GOP is too busy squandering its majority status in the House to think about doing anything meaningful.

Well, the unintended consequence is that as society moves to more, so-called, efficient us of energy, consumption falls.

The revenue falls.

Then taxes fall.

Then the power companies request permission to raise rates to compensate for the falling revenues.

The regulators will then grant the rate increase because of the falling tax revenues.

There you have it. We will be screwed once again.

The last US incandescent light bulb manufacturing plant already closed due to this insane law, adding to the unemployment rolls. Now all light bulbs are imported. One more industry gone. If this bill is passed, the incandescent plants will not reopen. There is no indication factories will be built in the USA for the newer technologies as the Wall Street banks prefer to fund manufacturing projects overseas.

Once more the globalists and environmentalists have killed another US industry. Bush could have stopped it by casting a veto. However, he chose to support the greens and the Chinese manufacturers.
