From Credo Action:
Rep. Todd Tiahrt is about to vote on legislation designed to stop global warming. Unfortunately, members of the House who answer to the worst polluters have succeeded in including a Trojan Horse at the heart of the legislation — a prohibition on Obama's EPA being able to use the Clean Air Act to take additional action on CO2.This little known, almost secret provision actually guarantees that the United States will fall short of doing what the scientists tell us must happen — a reduction of 80% of CO2 emissions from their 1990 level.Mr. Obama ran for president on a very strong global warming platform which achieved the 80% reduction, launched a cap and trade market without giving away free permits to polluters, and set strong standards for boosting clean renewable energy. Special interests are warping his pledge almost beyond recognition.But the worst and most important compromise — and the one most secret and hidden from view — is the crippling of EPA's powers. This is precisely what Newt Gingrich and the Republican-controlled House of the 1990s did to President Clinton's EPA from 1995 on. They simply prohibited EPA from enforcing many laws. We cannot let the House strip President Obama of his most powerful tool to stop global warming.
Click here to tell Rep. Tiahrt to remove any provision that prevents President Obama's Environmental Protection Agency from using the Clean Air Act to reduce CO2 emissions.
