Let's get political in here
HR 2454
This bill taxes energy companies, and that tax will be passed down to the people who pay those energy bills- like me. Friday last week, it was voted on by the House; it passed by 7 votes. No one has read the bill in its entirety - 1201 pages, 300 added on overnight in closed door meetings with who knows what lobbyists. Does that seem right to you?
Up next, a health care bill. Whether you're for or against it, I think you'll agree this is an issue important enough for congress to read the bill before they vote on it. It's too important for them not to.
