The short explanation of this alert was:

It’s official.  Chicago has the highest gas prices in the nation, topping out at an average $4.07 per gallon. 

And to top it all off, a recent report highlighted that even if you want to buy a highly fuel efficient vehicle, like a hybrid, you can’t even find one!  Why?  Because they are going to the 14 other states that have Clean Cars legislation.  Read the NBC5 report.

It’s time for Illinois to join the other 14 states and lead the Midwest by adopting the Clean Cars standard.  The Illinois Clean Cars Act, HB 3424, requires auto manufacturers to build cleaner, less polluting cars.  And with less pollution, there is more fuel efficiency, which saves you money at the pump.

With less gas to purchase, Illinoisans can spend an estimated $1.2 billion in savings on goods and services made right here in Illinois instead of fueling the economies of other states, countries, and continents.

Consumers need a choice of cleaner, more efficient vehicles to drive the economy of Illinois.  Write your legislator today and tell them to support the Illinois Clean Cars Act.
