We are asking Chairman Neal to provide a greater tax rebate to consumers of electric and hybrid vehicles and to remove the cap on the volume of vehicles sold which makes them currently ineligible. The Federal Government should be incentivizing its citizens to a greater extent to be environmentally conscious and lead the change in reducing our dependency of fossil fuel. The facts are that electric vehicles use much less energy per mile than conventionally-fueled vehicles. For passenger cars, good all-electric designs use roughly a quarter of the energy per mile of gasoline cars, tracing back to the source. We must focus more car buyers in this direction and significantly reduce our dependency on fossil fuels and the countries that supply it.
