Key Response
They Say: Temporary suspension…we are just hitting the “pause button.”
Proposition is an effective repeal of clean energy laws…
Unemployment levels have only hit 5.5% for an entire year 3 times in last three decades…once in a blue moon economic conditions.
Repeal will pull the rug out from under the fastest growing segment of our economy -- will lose our state’s national competitive edge.
Stop/start regulation would cause chaos for business planning.
Oil companies’ want to repeal laws so they don’t have to spend their billions in profits to minimize pollution.
