Senate intensifies climate bill efforts

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A powerful U.S. senator on Tuesday called for tough trade protections that may complicate global climate change talks, while U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon traveled to Washington to push for progress on a deal. The U.S. Senate is writing legislation to reduce domestic emissions of carbon dioxide and other gases associated with global warming, but there is stiff opposition from Republicans and moderate Democrats who fret about its economic impact. The battle comes as the United States and other nations prepare for a December 7-18 summit in Copenhagen to sketch out next steps on fighting global warming and the devastation many scientists ...

From:   www.afp.com
The US Senate will complete the framework of climate change legislation before next month's high-stakes summit in Copenhagen, Senator John Kerry promised UN chief Ban Ki-moon on Tuesday. "We are engaged in the process that will hopefully put us in a position to go to Copenhagen with a sort of framework, or outline, or where the Senate will be heading in its legislation," Kerry told reporters after meeting Ban at the US Capitol. The Senate has not followed the House of Representatives in finalizing the first-ever US federal caps on carbon emissions, raising fears that the December 7-18 talks in the Danish capital will ...

Senate panel approves Democratic climate bill

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A controversial climate change bill cleared its first hurdle in the U.S. Senate on Thursday, allowing President Barack Obama to tout progress in the run-up to next month's global warming talks in Copenhagen. Democrats on the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee ignored a Republican boycott and used their majority to approve the legislation that would require U.S. industry to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases 20 percent by 2020, from 2005 levels. "I think this is a great signal for Copenhagen that there's a will to do what it takes to advance this issue," committee Chairman Barbara ... Read Full Story

Baucus: 'Time to get the job done' on health care

From:   www.ap.org
Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus has convened his panel for a long-anticipated vote on sweeping health overhaul legislation. He declared that "pretty much everything's been said and now it's time to get the job done." The expected approval by Baucus' committee would mark the biggest step forward yet for President Barack Obama's top domestic priority. The Baucus-pushed 10-year, $829-billion plan would require all Americans to purchase insurance and aims to hold down spiraling medical costs over the long term. The Finance Committee is the last of five congressional panels to act on a health overhaul bill, pushing a remake of the U.S. health ... Read Full Story
