| One of the bad things about having a 26-3 delegation is that odd things like this come up:
We had as many Democrats from NY vote against the American Clean Energy bill today as Republicans.
Thanks go out to John McHugh for his intelligent vote against his party, one of only 8 Republican congressmen with the balls to do so.
Jeers to Eric Massa and Mike Arcuri. I want to hear why they voted no on the future of Earth. The bill was so good that it was not only backed by The Nature Conservancy, The Audubon Society, etc., but also Dupont, GE, Ford, Shell, and Dow Chemical.
If the bill is good enough to be loved by hippies and big oil and chemical companies alike, why isn't it good enough for Arcuri and Massa? The final vote was only a 7 vote win - it should never have been that close
Call Senator Schumer and Senator Gillibrand. Lets make sure that this isn't close in the Senate. |
