I would like to thank the Delaware GOP Senate Caucus for sending me their recent e-newsletter, focusing on the issue of zero-emission vehicle standards mandate, including what this caucus believes is not beneficial to the citizens of Delaware.
After reading this written opinion, I do have one basic, reasonable question to ask.
Has this specific caucus, political party always been opposed to every issue that moves this state and this nation into the 21st century, or are we going to be constantly directed by the Republican Party to living our lives in the Renaissance?
The time to clean our waters and our air was years ago. We just have a short period of time to leave this earth free of pollutants for our children, grandchildren and future generations.
I am asking that this group of Senate minority Republicans wake up and begin realizing the need to green our environment and have air that is not toxic. Not every issue that you oppose boils down to dollars and money.
