Question L2
An EMP event could be caused by terrorists or a hostile nation, but could also occur naturally as a result of powerful solar flares. It would knock
out the electric grid, rendering the area or even whole parts of the country powerless and shut down our critical infrastructure like hospitals.
Knowing this, do you favor or oppose Congress passing a law to protect our national power grid? (IF FAVOR/OPPOSE, ASK) And would that be STRONGLY
(favor/oppose) or SOMEWHAT (favor/oppose)?

Question L2
An EMP event could be caused by terrorists or a hostile nation, but could also occur naturally as a result of powerful solar flares. It would knock
out the electric grid, rendering the area or even whole parts of the country powerless and shut down our critical infrastructure like hospitals.
Knowing this, do you favor or oppose Congress passing a law to protect our national power grid? (IF FAVOR/OPPOSE, ASK) And would that be STRONGLY
(favor/oppose) or SOMEWHAT (favor/oppose)?
