Lugar Shoots Down Utilities-Only Emissions Cap
Tuesday, June 22, 2010 at 9:15 am
After pushing for years for an economy-wide cap on carbon emissions, the White House and Senate Democrats appear ready to compromise. Their newest idea is a cap on just electric utilities as part of a broader energy bill. The goal, of course, is to bring moderate Republicans on board, like Sen. Richard Lugar (R-Ind.).
So what does Sen. Richard Lugar (R-Ind.) have to say about it?
“No. I said no cap-and-trade,” said Sen. Richard Lugar (R-Ind.), speaking to reporters in the Capitol.
And … we move one step closer to a climate-free energy bill.

The cost of energy as we know it must go up to bring about the economic environment necessary to foster the growth of alternative energy technologies.
