Current Energy & Environmental Legislation - A Vision from the Hill - WCEE
Event Tabs Default Post-Event
This year, Congress is contemplating a variety of legislative initiatives in spite of a calendar that threatens to be constrained by must-pass legislation and the annual budget debate. What are the consensus areas among the +100 proposals offered for Senate Energy Chairman Lisa Murkowski’s (R-AK) energy bill? What direction might the House Energy & Commerce’s legislation take in the context of the new energy vision laid out by Chairman Upton’s Architecture of Abundance? In addition, Congress awaits EPA’s finalization of the Clean Power Plan for greenhouse gas emissions from power plants this summer.
Join WCEE for a conversation about these topics over breakfast on Monday, July 13th! We will be joined by key Congressional staffers who will offer their insights and opinions on the busy summer and fall that lie ahead.
