I have suffered from allergies my entire life, so it’s a health issue for me also. As a NY resident I’m imploring all of my NY representatives to please join the plan to reduce emissions.we must support policies with strong components of equity by prioritizing clean investments. I appreciate the bipartisan nature of this project. Please take a look at what is happening in Australia, living in DENIAL is no longer an option, a cleaner future is the only solution at this point. Let us not pretend and act like the mainstream media , the reality show bores me! The game is up!	-

This is particularly ill-advised at a time when we are heading into the New England Winter Season. This is not the time to add a new gas tax. There's plenty of gas tax already.	-

How many scientific reports, grim news articles and shocking images will it take to jar people to change their daily habits and consumption patterns. I feel optimistic that people are becoming acutely aware of how dire the situation is, but feel that we need policy to drive change at the highest level. I call on the Gov. Phil Scott of Vermont to agree to all terms of the TCI.	-

You need to support this initiative with all available means to stave off rapidly approaching natural, social, economic and civic catastrophe. Hiding your head in the sand is not the answer - we've waited too long to address this disaster already.	-
