Cars and CAFE Domestic automakers automak-ers are addressing these energy challenges and direct as, much as $17 billion bil-lion a year toward alter native-energy research and development. In spite of this commitment, commit-ment, some still believe that the 1970s policy of regulated CAFE (Corporate (Corpo-rate Average Fuel Economy) Econ-omy) standards alone is the best approach to reducing gasoline consumption. con-sumption. However, a combination of reasonable reason-able CAFE increases and the development of alternative-fuel vehicles is the better approach. Because of the initiative taken by domestic auto-. makers, Americans have a better choice in alternative-fuel technology. Eth-anol, Eth-anol, biofuels and renewable renew-able energy, sources free from harmful emissions are the future. History shows that simply mandating overly aggressive fuel economy standards does not work.

During its fuel economy debate, the House of Representatives Rep-resentatives will have to make a decision that will have a lasting impact on domestic auto industry and energy future. Several competing bills have been introduced and members have a clear choice between fuel economy econ-omy legislation that provides pro-vides for a reasonable increase in-crease in CAFE standards with a strong emphasis on alternative fuel development, develop-ment, or legislation that focuses solely on CAFE standards, which will cripple an industry that is too important to the U.S. economy. Some J3 million auto and related industry jobs are at stake. One House bill under consideration is similar to an already passed Senate bill introduced by Representative Rep-resentative Ed Markey (D-jMass.), which would force automakers to "divert "di-vert scarce alternative-energy alternative-energy resources to retool re-tool engines that will still rely on gasoline at the end of the day. However, the United Auto Workers union said the bill could cost 17,000 jobs. A more balanced option is available with Hill-Terry legislation (H.R. 2927) and has strong bipartisan support. While still increasing in-creasing CAFE standards, it does so at a reasonable rate determined by the Department of Transportation, Transpor-tation, adding just two years to the timeline for vehicle compliance. But those two years al-. low the U.S. auto industry indus-try to continue investing in critical alternative-fuel' technology.
