US Taxpayers to Increase Backing for Compressed Natural Gas Vehicles

There now appears to be an increasing chance legislation will be enacted in the US by May 2010 increasing support for natural gas as an alternative to oil in transportation.  This could be the most significant energy policy change in the US since the controversial decision a few years ago to provide taxpayer subsidies for crop based fuels.

In the videos attached to the Bloomberg news story US oilman Boone Pickens is quite optimistic about the probability legislation will pass very soon.
