The author concludes that legislators should vote against the environmental bill. He supports his argument by saying that although the bill is popular with voters, there will be negative economic consequences if it is passed, and states that great leaders should do what is right even if it is unpopular.

The author only compares two considerations for this bill when recommending whether or not to pass it: environmental and economic. He does not examine other areas impacted by this bill that could sway a legislator’s decision, such as health and safety or foreign relations. One of these issues, along with the environmental benefits, could outweigh the economic drawbacks of the bill. Without examining all sides of this issue, the author’s conclusion that this bill should not be passed is not fully supported.

The author never presumes that most legislators are great leaders. Instead, he recommends that the legislators act like great leaders by voting against the environmental bill.

The author does not presume that the bill is more or less likely to pass due to its economic implications. Instead, he argues that the bill should not be passed due to its economic implications.

The author left out any analysis of other policy implications of this bill, choosing only to discuss environmental and economic concerns. If a different reason for passing the bill outweighs any economic concerns, his recommendation to legislators is unsupported.

What legislators usually consider when voting for bills is irrelevant. The author’s argument discusses environmental and economic factors, as well as a bill’s popularity, not what is routinely considered by legislators.

The author does not assume this at all. He introduces the facts of the bill’s popularity and its economic effects separately, and never implies that there is a relationship between those two facts in this instance or any other.
