After we have a sponsor, I think I'll propose an amendment that incorporates my carbon tax into this bill.

Hearing no objection, PiT is now the sponsor.

I will offer this amendment:

I'll motion to table the other bill if this passes.

I think it would have been better to pursue the Carbon tax separately.

For procedural reasons, or because the original bill redistributed revenues generated by the tax?

Economic.


How many million btu is in a gallon of Gasoline?

I've been trying to find the answer to this actually, but I don't know.  Is dollars per million/BtU a flawed measure?

c. Paying entities may be eligible for a partial or total rebate of the tax payments if the paying entity can prove that some or all of the carbon dioxide emissions will be kept from entering the Earth's atmosphere for millennia.

I have a question about the bolded part of the amendment: What does keeping carbon dioxide emissions from entering the Earth's athmosphere for millenia concretely mean? How does it work, technically speaking?

In essence, the paying entity (let's say a factory) can apply for a rebate if they prove that their activities are not environmentally harmful.

I'm going to motion to strike my previous amendment.  This obviously is something that should have a full debate in both houses.

Is the motion friendly or unfriendly, PiT?

No, this removes the carbon tax, which is better for the Congress to consider separately.

The motion is adopted.  With PiT out of the Senate, I'll assume sponsorship.  Senators have 24 hours to object, after which I think we'll move to a final vote.

Hearing no objection, Scott is now the sponsor.

A final vote is now open.  Senators, please vote Aye, Nay, or Abstain.
