BillingsGazette.com :: Crowd protests cap-and-trade proposal

BillingsGazette.com :: Crowd protests cap-and-trade proposal

With a bullhorn in his right hand and a "no cap and trade" sign in his left, Frank DeVries was getting the word out.

"Too many Americans are standing by and letting this happen," DeVries said after a rally Monday evening to protest against proposed regulation of greenhouse gases.

DeVries and about 250 others gathered in Amend Park for the "hot-air tour" that landed in Billings. Americans for Prosperity hosted the event, complete with its red hot-air balloon and free food, to spread the message about the pitfalls of cap and trade.

The proposal would set limits on carbon dioxide released. Companies that pollute less than the cap would be allowed to trade their unused capacity to companies that overpollute.

People aren't buying in to the global warming lie anymore. And we will keep screaming about the fraud until this tax bill dies.
