Today, @RepCurbelo and @RepBrianFitz introduced the Market Choice Act (MCA) to address the dangerous economic and environmental effects of greenhouse gas emissions. curbelo.house.gov/news/documents…
This legislation would eliminate the federal excise tax on gasoline and diesel fuel (the “gas tax”), in favor of a tax on GHG emissions (a #carbontax) levied on fossil fuels and certain industrial facilities and products. See this article by @TimPuko wsj.com/articles/flori…
The goals of the Market Choice Act are to 1) to fund infrastructure by taxing GHG pollution; 2) spur significant reductions in carbon emissions; 3) and to offer a market alternative to the expansion of federal carbon regulations. niskanencenter.org/blog/legislati…
