Jan. - Feb. 2007 Edition: Rehberg votes against CLEAN energy act
The “first hundred hours” of the 110th Congress proved positive for alternative, renewable energy! The U.S. House of Representatives, with many new faces this year, passed the Clean Energy Act of 2007 (H.R. 6) as part of a suite of new legislation.
Tune into the “How They Voted” section of this edition of Congressional Watch to find out the details of H.R. 6 - and what it will do to foster clean, renewable energies, much of which can be produced right here at home, in Montana.
Then visit Congressional Watch’s “Action and Opinion” section to find out why the Montana congressional delegation finds itself at the pivotal center of debate over global warming and particularly, debate over solutions to this emergency, including the “25x25” Resolution, a forward-thinking renewable energy initative before Congress - with a new Montana co-sponsor!
Finally, find out in “Action and Opinion” about Senator Max Baucus’s newest post to protect access for hunters and anglers across the country, as part of the Congressional Sportsmen Caucus. Montana sportsmen and women are invited to take part in an advisory committee to the Caucus. For more information about this committee and how to get involved, visit his website.
As always, we’ve provided links to the groups focusing on current issues and to news sources for more information.
