Senator Maria Cantwell, Democrat, WA
The New York Times reported today that the Democrats in the Senate are prepared to disclose the information on the new climate change bill. This signifies their support of Obama's recent climate change agenda. The bill is sponsored by Sen. Maria Cantwell (WA), who is on the Senate Energy Committee. The bill, the New York times reports, will not pass due to the Republican control of Congress, but it is intended to provide a unity among the party on climate change and set a precedent on what to expect if the Democrats regain control of Congress. Besides support from both parties, another thing the bill lacks is a tax on carbon emissions.NYTimes: Senate Democrats to Unveil Aggressive Climate Change Bill
