Many practical solutions exist that don’t involve making life more difficult for working people, writes TomJoyceSports. Democrats, and Republicans, should take note.
If California has its way, many states may end up banning the sale of new gas-powered cars beginning in 2035 as the Golden State pushes for reductions in carbon emissions. That's because California was granted a waiver from the 1970 Clean Air Act, allowing the state to create tougher emission standards if it receives federal approval. And in 1977, the federal government decided that other states could adopt the California standards.
In Massachusetts, for example, most Republican state legislators support this California-style energy policy. The same is true of Republican Gov. Charlie Baker. Last month, Baker signed a climate bill that passed with overwhelming bipartisan support. Among other provisions, it says that if California can ban the sale of new gas-powered cars in 2035, Massachusetts will follow suit.
It’s undoubtedly a bad move. But when the talking heads on the Right say it’s an example of Democrats enacting crazy policies, they’ll be wrong. This anti-human environmentalism is a team effort from both major parties.
