Kerry: Action on climate bill remains likely
WASHINGTON — The Democratic sponsor of climate change legislation say he is working to address Republican concerns that led him to delay the bill’s introduction.
Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts says Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid and others are discussing how to revive the climate bill.
Kerry postponed the bill Saturday after Graham threatened to withhold support if Reid pushes ahead first with an immigration bill.
Kerry said independent Sen. Joe Lieberman of Connecticut as well as their other colleagues are looking for a solution and acting in good faith.

This bill is dangerous and needs to be scrapped immediately. This bill is running under the assumption that man-made climate change exist and we must do something to save the planet. This bill will do nothing but put government in control of businesses. This is one of the most dangerous bills every devised and needs to be buried forever. It is proven time and time again to be faulty science. |
