The June 29, 2009 edition of The Wall Street Journal features an article titled, "Obama Wary of Tariff Provision." For more on this issue, read the Public Interest Institutes's brief titled "Iowa Climate Change Advisory Council Recommendations: Warmed Over and Wrong Again."
“Cap and Trade” Energy Legislation moved through the House, with the House narrowly approving the landmark legislation by a 219-212 vote last week. The National Write Your Congressman report "the measure would put the Department of Agriculture, rather than the EPA, in charge of special projects to reduce emissions in rural areas. It would not set new greenhouse gas emission standards for aircraft, but does include new standards for motor vehicles and off-road equipment. The bill now moves to the Senate for consideration. (H.R.2454)."
The Wall Street Journal points out that the "Trade Proposal in Climate Bill a Potential Problem as Action Moves to Senate."
