Legislation Up-Date
The efforts of hobbyists all across
the nation paid off with the recent defeat of the old car scrappage provision in
the Energy Policy Act of 2002 (Section 822 of S.517). Senator Ben
Nighthorse Campbell's (C-C) amendment to eliminate scrappage from the
legislation was passed by unanimous vote. There were thousand of e-mails,
faxes, letters and phone calls and those hobbyist efforts were cited by Senator
Campbell as a compelling force in helping defeat this legislation. While
we can be momentarily glad, we must be continuously vigilant. These things
only snozze!
