European Green Car Retrofit Act
-
Though it is technically legal, I am opposed to attempts to amend unrelated legislation by act, as it is simply bad practice. I also do not want to see this act become an omnibus for climate legislation.
In spite of my support for Cllr. Mizrachi-Roscoe's first amendment, I am therefore opposed to his second.
Iras Tilkanas
Council Speaker and Councillor for the Republic of Istkalen -
