Fuel economy campaign aims to push 35 mpg standard
The Drive Beyond Oil tour stops at Elyria City Hall to urge residents to call representatives for tougher fuel economy rules. Organizers wear 35 mpg or bust shirts and hand out phones to contact lawmakers. The effort highlights Ohio potential support from Rep. Betty Sutton, while Rep. Marcy Kaptur faces stiffer opposition. The group plans to press for a 2020 adoption, with potential large gas savings for Ohio families. An on-tour stop in Youngstown targeted Rep. Tim Ryan as well. The group travels in a Toyota Highlander hybrid due to rental issues. Contacts: Cindy Leise at 329-7245.
