Truckers Rally In Salem Over Cap and Trade

SALEM, Or.—Over 300 truckers around the state formed a convey headed to the state capitol Wednesday.  They are very upset about a cap and trade bill HB 2020.  They say the clean energy bill will destroy trucking jobs and result in gasoline prices upwards of $4.00 per gallon.  It also could cost every house hold in the state more money from groceries, to furniture, to cars and more.

Truckers commented that their industries are vital to a thriving economy and that Oregon will be a big loser if the bill passes.
