Paul Driessen has some questions at Townhall.com.
Our Congressman, Tim Walz, already voted for the House version of this legislation. In his recent spate of glossy mailings to constituents, he says he’s concerned about our federal budget deficit and about job creation. Yet, if this legislation becomes law, the planet will not be saved, energy will be more expensive for Americans, and everything that relies on energy will be more expensive (unless produced outside of the U.S.). For all of us, that means we can afford less of everything (or have fewer jobs). That means we need less production of everything. That means fewer jobs. That means less tax revenue for the government. That means more pressure on government deficits.
Democrats like Tim Walz are either incapable of connecting the dots — fools — or unwilling to expose the dots — dishonest. In any case, what Tim Walz claims to be concerned about and what Tim Walz votes for are two different things.
