No Fuel Ban in the Daily Caller: “Clean Transportation” Standard Insanity Must Stop In Minnesota

On Monday, September 8, No Fuel Ban Executive Director Kent Kaiser, Ph.D., had an op-ed published, “‘Clean Transportation Standard Insanity Must Stop In Minnesota.”

In the op-ed, Kaiser wrote, “There’s a troubling trend emerging out of the liberal West Coast, birthed in California and spreading to the East and North. States such as Oregon and Washington have set a date by which they will ban liquid fuels. It sounds insane, but it’s real. Purportedly meant to cut carbon emissions, the immediate outcome has been, predictably, a steep gas price hike and economic strain for residents… In a diverse coalition of stakeholders, we’ve been fighting this battle since 2021, when CTS legislation was first introduced in St. Paul. Despite our consistent success in quashing such a poor policy, its resilience is worrisome. Minnesota risks being the next domino to fall in a chain of states backsliding into self-inflicted financial strain and industrial decline. The insanity must stop in St. Paul.”
