Opening paragraph:
"A group of prominent Republicans and business leaders backing a tax on carbon dioxide were taking their case Wednesday to top White House aides, including chief economic adviser Gary Cohn."
Your little "elected" qualifier is a red herring, as is the paragraph you cited. Fact: prominent Republicans and business leaders are backing a tax on carbon dioxide. You're going in a snit over nothing.
