Regulation/Legislation

The Senate and House Climate Change Bill
The Senate and House climate change bill would increase costs of gasoline, diesel and aviation fuel, and drive jobs and production overseas, increasing greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) in foreign countries that will have a new competitive advantage. 
Under the so-called “American Clean Energy and Security Act”, U.S. refiners will have to buy allowances, increasing their costs and giving a competitive advantage to non-US refiners. U.S. jobs would be lost and contrary to the bills intention, America would be less energy secure and more reliant on imports of gasoline and other refined products.
