HARRISBURG — In response to Gov. Josh Shapiro’s proposed energy plan, released today, March 13, in Scranton, Reps. Tim O’Neal (R-Washington) and Josh Kail (R-Beaver/Washington) issued the following statement:
“Once again, Gov. Shapiro is pushing extreme California policies that will cost Pennsylvanians more. After campaigning on pulling out of RGGI, Gov. Shapiro is pushing another outrageous energy tax. There are many things wrong with this proposal, from rolling blackouts to massive job loss, but the most egregious thing is this cap and tax program that will increase electric bills for every Pennsylvanian. Pennsylvania cannot afford more failed Shapiro policies. We stand against ANOTHER Shapiro tax increase.”
