Cap and Trade Scorecard



One of the worst pieces of legislation in recent history, "cap and trade," has been passed by the House and now heads to the Senate. Voting is expected to take place September 18th, so there is time to make your voice heard: tell your Senators to vote NO to cap and trade.

UPDATE: Senate committee deadline has been extended to Sept. 28th. The Democrats do not have enough votes to get this passed. Keep up the pressure!!
