Total BS. Leave us alone. We already pay too much in gas taxes for sub par roadways run by sub par politicians and their minions. |

Yet another tax on the over taxed. Unrealistic and lazy attempt at funding the climate change cult. People like me will just drive to N.H. Thank God they have a REAL Republican gov. |

NO, this tax should not be imposed. Its initiation circumvents the legislative process, and its proposed implementation would be via inefficient bureaucratic fiat. |

The TCI is an unconstitutional tax. It does nothing for the climate at all. This is yet another scam by idiot liberals to take your money in a confiscatory tax. Don’t let it happen! |
