Republican Congressman Mike Kelly of Pennsylvania just introduces a bill to end the Federal Tax Credit for plug in cars. It's H.R. 3768 and if it passes we will lose the $7,500 tax credit which will be a serious blow to all plug in cars.
This blow-hard has made millions in oil and has repeatedly defended subsidies to the oil industry yet want's "the people to decide which energy wins" when it comes to electric cars. I think he wants HIS energy to win and doesn't care about the people he represents. Read this about his oil connections: Rep. Kelly, Millionaire Investor In Oil And Gas Companies, Defends Subsidies Against Angry Town Hall Constituents | ThinkProgress
Anyway, please call your congressman(especially if they are republican) and tell them not to support H.R. 3768. The only way to defeat this is to let our elected officials know that we'll vote them out if they support this bill. I just spent half an hour on the phone(it's easy to get their phone number with an online search) with a member of his staff and left my contact information for them to reply back to me on his position. I'm going to now go to his local office next week to continue the conversation. Let your voice be heard, this is too important not to get involved!
