Why use the poor object of taxation to gather more for the government coffers? Why not just raise the sale tax? Please stop meddling with additional tax. Tax one thing and tax it well enough to cover your budget. This is a ridiculous idea which only results in a regressive tax on local people purchasing anything requiring local transportation. It is a regressive tax. And it is stupid.	-

This is all well and good on paper--save the planet, etc. But in reality it's to line the pockets of certain people at the expense of the average citizens. It will cost the regular Virginians too much at the pump, when we're already struggling. You serve us! Think of the cost/benefit and don't join.	-

As I've lived in Virginia, one of the ways that my family has been able to make ends meet is the affordable energy prices compared to California, specifically gas prices are much more affordable. I understand that revenue raised will go to specific industries that may or may not be effective at discovering better energy efficiency. Also, I've read that there will be marginal climate change prevention. So it's a bad policy.	-
