While the Environmental Protection Agency tries to force an intrusive global warming regulatory scheme on the American people without so much as a vote of Congress, Americans for Prosperity, the free-market grassroots group that brought you the Hot Air Tour, is launching the 2nd swing of its Regulation Reality Tour in Colorado, April 19-21.

This unprecedented EPA power grab would regulate vehicles, farming and mining equipment, lawnmowers, and just about everything with a motor. The regulatory requirements in many cases could require complete redesigns, as well as operational changes. It would also regulate any large commercial building or smaller facilities that produce carbon dioxide, including restaurants, schools, and hospitals.

“Our message to Congress is simple: If you don’t stop the EPA, we will hold you responsible for the lost Colorado jobs and higher prices,” said AFP State Director Jeff Crank.

The tour will feature AFP’s very own EPA Carbon Cops in their environmentally friendly Smart cars, showing concerned citizens what the future could look like under the EPA’s global warming power grab. Attendees will also hear from AFP President Tim Phillips, local elected officials, small business owners, and manufactures from towns across Colorado.

Bipartisan resolutions in the Senate (S.J. Res. 26) and the House (H.J. Res. 76 and H. J. Res. 77) have been introduced to stop the EPA, and AFP is encouraging concerned citizens to contact U.S. Senator Michael Bennet and urge him to co-sponsor and vote for these resolutions.

A complete listing of the tour stops is below. Locations and times are subject to change. Please visit www.regulationreality.com for updates and to register for an event.
