Yes! The idea that Elected Representatives don’t listen to their constituents is not true. In reality, Congressional staffers take every call and voicemail and read every email their office receives and pass these onto their member of Congress in regular briefings. Congress works for you and they want to know what their constituents care about. You may receive a generic email in response, but your message was still received loud and clear.

Why is a price on carbon good for Americans?

   Stops energy price hikes: Americans shouldn’t have to live with price shocks and energy inflation. Pricing carbon will drive energy innovation, giving every American community access to abundant, affordable clean energy at a predictable price.
   Supports the American economy: With new clean energy sources comes millions of new jobs. Researchers, engineers, manufacturers, construction workers and electricians will be in high demand, putting Americans to work in good careers.
   Gives the market a say: Pricing carbon incentivizes businesses to move away from fossil fuels, but it doesn’t specify how or subsidize one type of energy over another. Instead, it lets the economy sort out the most efficient way to provide Americans with power.
