Over all I think this is a very good bill. This bill definately contains some measures that will lead to lower gas prices. However there are some pieces of the bill I would like to see removed.
Section 3 would take away regional rights to regulate gasoline formulas and may disrupt regional economies as most regions will have to adhere to stricter quality regulations than they do currently.
I strongly oppose Section 5 of this bill. Any across-the-board increases in fuel efficiency standards will likely lead to deaths on the road as car manufacturers are forced to produce lighter, and therefore less safe cars to meet the standards.
The rest of this bill is absolutely stellar.
The administration supports this bill and both the President and I were integral to authoring it.
As to section 3, the regulations in question are not regional regulations. They are regulations set by the Federal Government under the Clean Air Act.
Gotcha. I hereby remove my complaint in regards to Section 3.
