Senate Panel Approves Democratic Climate Bill

Nov5
 

From Reuters

A key U.S. Senate environment committee approved a Democratic climate change bill on Thursday that would require industry to cut emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases 20 percent by 2020 from 2005 levels.

The bill approved by the Environment and Public Works Committee will now become one of several initiatives in the Senate aimed at attacking global warming. But they are unlikely to produce legislation that would be voted on by the full Senate until next year at the earliest.

Apparently, $140,000 is too much for taxpayers to shoulder, yet her bill which would impose a $3.6 trillion hidden tax, is perfectly reasonable!

Thomas J. Pyle, President of the Institute for Energy Research, issued the following statement in response:

“While the good Senator from California may look at this as a victory, the only winners in this fiasco are China and Washington special-interests groups. The losers, again, are the American people.”
