Over the past few years, Lincoln has taken great strides in supporting and developing the green energy industry. Renewable energy is supported heavily through the Lincoln Energy Authority and $60M in yearly subsidies to solar, wind, and hydroelectric power companies. In addition to hosting this booming field, we have taken steps to reduce our reliance on fossil fuels.
Our ongoing phase-out process is inherently linked to the tax on carbon emissions by power plants. Though I sympathize with the objective here, I cannot support any proposal that seeks to reduce taxes on corporate polluters.
