Sen. Chester Crandell has had enough of the “green” agenda he says is being imposed on hardworking Arizonans.
That’s why the Heber Republican teamed up with Arizona’s homebuilders on SB1227, which would prevent cities or counties from adopting energy-efficiency plans.
The measure passed the Senate Committee of the Whole on March 3, but has since stalled, as reported March 5 by Rose Law Group Reporter.
Although energy efficiency plans may provide a warm and fuzzy feeling for those worried about global warming, which Crandell said isn’t real, he sees them as nothing but a scheme to require the use of “green” manufacturers’ building materials.
