Cap and Tax Eight ALONE Could Be Responsible for 500,000 Jobs Losses
What do the Cap and Tax Eight Republicans have against hard working Americans?
You won’t believe this! According to a recent Cap and Trade report from The Heritage Foundation:
Frank LoBiondo voted for 3,575 job losses in his own district within the first year of Cap and Trade. Frank LoBiondo’s Cap & Trade vote alone could be responsible for as many as 54,528 people to losing their job from 2012-2035.

Mark Kirk voted for 4,164 people to lose their job in the first year of Cap & Trade. Mark Kirk also voted to terminate 70,344 jobs in his own district (right there in the Chicago suburbs) sometime between 2012 and 2035 as a result of his support for Cap and Trade… I guess ya gotta make sacrifices for the Planet, even if that means 70,000 jobs!

The Heritage Report shows the detailed economic impact of Waxman-Markey (aka Cap and Trade or “Cap & Tax”) by Congressional District. Find The Report Right Here.
Oh and by the way… this report was available for these so called “Republicans” to read before the vote… Despite what anyone tells our Eight “Alleged” Republican friends, it’s still never too late to resign, I’m just sayin’…
This is Jason Bradley, thank you for reading.
