"Mileage Permission" Next Trick?

Remember this:  Democrats are trying to connect with MAGA voters.

So here's their next move:

...Massachusetts Senate Majority Leader Cynthia Stone Creem believes she knows how to cut emissions. She’s introduced a bill that would “set a statewide vehicle miles traveled reduction goal for the year 2030 and for every fifth year thereafter.” It includes a “a whole-of-government plan to reduce vehicle miles traveled and increase access to transportation options other than personal vehicles.”...

... “Creem says EVs aren’t enough – Massachusetts must limit how far you can drive, too,” the organization warns. “Her bill creates a panel to track your mileage and fine you if you go too far. She says just walk or bike instead.”...

"Majority leader" implies something:  this woman is a high-powered Democrat, not some back-bench Thunberg wannabee.  So this concept has been floating around in Democrat "minds" and meets with general approval--and not only in Massachusetts.

THIS.  THIS is how to connect with MAGA peeps, ya'know.
