America's Climate Security Act will instill limits on the amount of gasoline and other fossil fuels Americans can use. The goal is to reduce U.S. emissions of carbon dioxide. It will also increase electricity and natural gas costs.

Now, to be fair, this is all due to fighting global warming. For most, they will think it is well worth it. It should be up to a vote. It is important that the effects and the costs that will be involved are made public in advance though. I don't see that happening. But don't worry, Minnesota will suffer the most, not you or I:

How much will it cost? According to the study:
When S. 2191 is fully implemented in Minnesota, the average household would see energy costs rise by $823 more per year in 2025 because of this legislation. The increase in the average electric bill would be at least 80% more than under current law, and the average natural gas bill increase would be at least 37% over current projections if S. 2191 becomes law.
