PA Republican legislators in a league of their own

 You don’t have to be a climatologist to understand global warming.  Anyone with an 8th grade education can understand it.  Anyone who spends time outdoors can see its effects.  We need to act now

So, the Pennsylvania House Republicans are acting.  They approved a bill by a 132-70 vote to impose fees on electric cars!

The fee would be $75 per year for a hybrid gas-electric car, $175 a year for an electric vehicle, and $275 for an electric vehicle with a weight rating of more than 26,000 pounds, such as a city bus.  Don’t fret–they didn’t leave out motorcycles.  Owners of electric motorcycles would pay a fee of $15.00 a year.

In case you want to call Rep. Heffley of Carbon County about this, his phone number is 610-377-6363.
