Carbon Emissions Reduction Zone Establishment Act
-
In my opinion, pardon my French and to quote Lizzo...it's about damn time.
Snoop Dogg
Councilor for the Commonwealth of California -
Cllr. Mizrachi-Roscoe, my proposal would allow the budget to be set even to zero, if a Commissioner so desired, maximizing flexibility. Yours, however, ensures that, no matter what future administrations want, the Union will have to spend money on at least one purpose - something I think, again, is unwise.
Akem Linek
Premier Commissioner -
I think you have got exactly the point of my amendment. You may be a good comissioner with a pure heart and you have shown yourself to be an exceptional commissioner , however we cannot guarantee all will be so good on spending and issues. The amendment I proposed would ensure stable funding growth for the CERZ projects and amplify the effect of the bill long term by ensuring the percentage is based on the higher figure automatically by having the minimum as a percent of contributions and also ensuring comissioners paid off by big oil and gas cannot just post a lower budget to undermine the CERZ and frustrate efforts to move to a more sustainable economic model.

The people have the right to elect such Commissioners, and to expect them to do what they elected them for.
Akem Linek
Premier Commissioner -
You have faith it will be the peoples choice but there are nations in this union that are corrupted by billionaires and millionaires being able to donate massively into politics and fund campaigns. We must protect against the ability of people owned by the corporate elite classes from destroying our climate and undermining this great act of yours to benefit some oil company, mining company and the polluters of this earth of ours. This is about survival and making sure millions or 10's of millions do not die from corporate greed , this is about protecting the weakest in power and poorest materially from abusing power structures for their own end.We cannot let this loophole to undermine the people of Europe and your great act proceed forward or future generations might ask those who vote against my amendment where were you when the ability of the corporatist elite to kill millions for a quick buck was set into law.
