Actually, the Bill has bipartisan support....

Yeah, but like most bills - they rarely READ THEM!

They should take a look at how much carbon is put into the air for one professional game like football. With 50 thousand plus traveling to a game.
How many private Jets with teams and all the equipment they need. How many corporate Jets with VIP's, TV crews and all media. I'm sure one football game pollutes more than a drag race. BP

Smart industries are putting in plans to be "carbon neutral". I believe that, if we want racing to survive, we have to get with the program.

Darren, we should have had a plan already, that could have been presented with all of the other material. You could help some of the people in Washington who are on the right side of this, but their peers ask them
"What can they do about their carbon footprint?" Some may have their mind made up already, based solely on our footprint.

Congress has incrementally abdicated it's power and authority to this huge, autonomous, bureaucratic agency (and others) which makes up crises, and the solutions to fix them, to justify it's existence with little oversight or accountability.

Then, citizens have to go back to Congress, and beg for protection from the monster they created, the monster that has no fear of Congress, lies and manipulates in order to retain and increase it's power.

Maybe Congress will get around to allowing us to keep our toys.
