The only thing Upton should be given is the Dim Bulb Award for advocating the banning of incandescent bulbs in favor of the poisonous mercury dim bulbs. We don’t need any “green” politicians in the GOP to scam the taxpayers. The Dems have taken on that role.

I don’t think he’s “green”; I think he’s crooked. His grandfather founded Whirlpool, and Whirlpool’s headquarters is in his district.

You can bet that Whirlpool is planning to profit from this ban.

Unfortunately our new “republican” governor just named the democrat who was one of the driving forces of emmission regulations in the state house to be his treasurer.
