Yay! Thanks for this, Rob.
Ditto. We need this exemption.
*sigh* "Continued to 2009" means it effectively got killed, right?
Yup. Hypothetically, it could be taken up against next year, but that's functionally the same as just introducing it again.
Are all the Finance committee members investors of Exxon or something? What other reason could they possibly give for refusing to pass this bill to the floor for a vote.
If a citizen is going to go through so much trouble to get away from polluting with gasoline (and dependence on oil companies) they should receive a tax credit not grief and harrassment b/c of a stupid road tax.
