Withdrawal from the agreement
 

This agreement is out of touch with reality. There is no way for citizens to afford such an endeavor unless they are in the top earning percentage. Well over 75 percent of Virginia's population live either pay check to pay check or close to that situation. The financial obligation on already struggling families would be overwhelming if this takes affect. The cost of the electric vehicle to its practicality and to the massive rise in already costly electricity. This will bankrupt the majority of citizens.
