AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill combines several separate measures into one package. Its first part would create a federal tax on greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels, certain industrial plants, and certain products, starting at $35 per metric ton in 2027 and rising each year. It would also tax certain imports based on their emissions, give rebates to some exporters, and repeal federal motor vehicle and aviation fuel taxes. Most of the tax money would go to a new trust fund that pays for highways, airports, flood projects, energy research, aid to displaced energy workers, and grants to states for low-income households. Other parts listed in the bill address cancer research funding, a federal fiscal commission, stock trading by House members, school safety, primary election voting, and Veterans Affairs employee procedures.
