OFA: Urgent action needed on clean energy

by Cedwyn

I get emails; you probably have the same one.  Organizing for America is urging action against Lisa Murkowski's amendment to prevent the Environmental Protection Agency from regulating greenhouse gas pollution.   If her measure becomes law, the effects would be immediate. Nearly every step President Obama has taken to promote clean energy would be repealed. It would wreak havoc on the President's landmark clean vehicle standards that ensure cars go farther on a gallon of gas, and it would block requirements that force large power plants and factories to use new technology and clean energy to reduce their pollution. This resolution is a giant step backward. Will you write your Senators?
