Introduce legislation to congress requiring equal funding for solar power and fossil fuels.

Created by D.R. on May 27, 2014

There is a massive disparity between the government funding and subsidies for solar power and those for fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are dangerous to extract, limited in supply, damaging to the environment and lead to entangling alliances for the United States. Solar on the other hand is clean, abundant, and almost limitless in supply. The average tax payer over the course of just five years will pay $521.73 to fossil fuels in government subsidies while paying just $7.24 to solar subsidies. The goal of this petition is introduce legislation that requires both forms of producing energy to be funded equally to create a level playing field in the energy market.
