House GOP "Environmentalists" Sponsor Bill To Establish Commission So It Can Study Global Warming!
What a good idea, guys! Way to go! Let's study it some more! Maybe then we can publish a paper!
A bipartisan bill introduced in the U.S. House on Thursday would create a commission to look for economically viable solutions to climate change. Amid the pro-fossil-fuels push by the Trump administration, the effort reflects how a small but increasingly vocal group of Republicans is embracing the reality of climate change and pressing the issue in Congress through modest steps.
This is the second time the bill, called the Climate Solutions Commission Act, has been introduced, after failing to pass in 2016.
It would establish a bipartisan National Climate Solutions Commission, which would conduct a comprehensive review of what can be done in both the private and public sectors to reduce greenhouse gas emissions while growing the economy and protecting jobs. If passed, it also would direct the Government Accountability Office to report on the financial tools, policies and institutions that can help reduce emissions while protecting economic growth.
EDIT
Rep. John Delaney (D-MD), one of the new bill's sponsors, said he can't predict whether it will pass this year, but he notes that there are nearly twice as many cosponsors this time—six representatives from each side of the aisle.
Ed. - Ooh!
