Bill Summary
To repeal carbon cap and trade authorization.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to repeal any existing legal authorization for carbon cap and trade programs. Carbon cap and trade is an environmental policy mechanism where governments set a limit (cap) on the total amount of greenhouse gas emissions allowed and create a market where companies can trade emission permits, with the goal of reducing overall carbon emissions. By removing the legal authorization for such programs, the bill would effectively eliminate the state's ability to implement or participate in carbon cap and trade systems. The bill is straightforward, with a single section that instructs the amendment of general statutes to remove the current legal framework supporting these carbon trading programs. The purpose appears to be preventing or stopping the use of cap and trade as a strategy for managing carbon emissions.
