[DeTomaso] Federal "Cash for Clunkers" Program

[Mark McWhinney]

>From SEMA:

Washington lawmakers are drafting a large economic stimulus package to help create jobs and rebuild infrastructure.  They want to include a nationwide scrappage program which would give U.S. tax dollars to consumers who turn-in older cars to have them crushed, as a misguided attempt to spur new car sales.  The lawmakers need to scrap this idea.  

The stimulus package is being drafted right now.  House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) wants to introduce the bill on January 6 and have it approved by Congress by January 20, so that President Obama can sign it into law after he is inaugurated.
