Resources on EPA

Today, I am cleaning up my emails, waiting for the Senate to vote on a gaggle of amendments that would restrict EPA’s authority to control greenhouse gases. They are supposed to vote today or tomorrow.

We have been lobbying hard for months against all anti-EPA bills, riders and amendments. This issue has moved so breathtakingly fast I am not sure I even have all the relevant amendments. Yesterday, someone asked me if I had a vote count. I am still tracking down amendments introduced in the last hour; it is impossible to know the views of swing Senators well enough to guess how they will react to these last minute proposals. The Senate in making sausages right now and it is beyond my powers to predict the size, shape and flavor of the resulting product.
