This week, the House passed three anti-drilling bills, H.R. 1146, which repeals a provision of the Republican tax bill that opened the coastal plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) to oil and gas development, as well as H.R. 1941 and H.R. 205, which place a permanent moratorium on offshore oil and gas leases on the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) along the Atlantic and Pacific coasts and in the Eastern Gulf of Mexico. I believe these measures are a key step toward ending a dangerous practice that threatens our nation’s coastal communities, oceans, national parks, marine life and climate.

The ever irritating san fran nan's constituent letter that would be detrimental to the petro industry and the bill associated with this attack on our energy sources. And, I am NOT a constituent of hers. I have my own problems with my reps.

Like it will pass the Senate.

This week, the House passed three anti-drilling bills,

...which are doomed to die in the Senate.

People in New York, San Francisco and DC: “Save the tundra!”

People in Alaska: “Drill Baby Drill!”

They need a giant wind-farm about 300 meters off of Malibu and others off of the Hamptons, Nantucket, Martha’s Vineyard and Cape Cod. And in the passes around Aspin. Let them practice what they preach.

Think mittens?

DOA in the Senate and just another ‘posture” Bill - also reaffirms the Dems will not let anything positive for the People out of the House as long as they control it - Nancy needs to take the spotlight off her problems and this is just a weak attempt.

And her chances of being re-(s)elcted next year may go up with these kinds of BS proposals. Not that there’s anyone that’ll run against her or beat her if they did. Purty dang sad situation this CONgress thing we got.
