"CAFE standards are a largely liberal cause,"

1967The California Air Resources Board was created from the merging of the California Motor Vehicle Pollution Control Board and the Bureau of Air Sanitation and its Laboratory. The Mulford-Carrell Air Resources Act was signed into law by Governor Ronald Reagan.
Federal Air Quality Act of 1967 was enacted. It established a framework for defining "air quality control regions" based on meteorological and topographical factors of air pollution. It allowed the State of California a waiver to set and enforce its own emissions standards for new vehicles based on California's unique need for more stringent controls.

There is a big difference between "regions" and "initiatives" and you can't just throw them in a sentence together and make them similar.

Sure you can. C'mon...
Who do you think would buy a Toyota Mirai? A conservative from Arkansas or a liberal from California? LOL...companies like Toyota go out on that limb because liberals embrace progress...conservatives resist it.

Read the thread for the last few days and see how conservatives deal with issues like alternative energy, public transportation, climate change, and the like.
