Statement by Steve Cochran Environmental Defense Climate Campaign Director:”We haven’t had the chance to carefully read the report, but it appears to be a serious attempt by Chairmen Dingell and Boucher to take the initial steps toward developing comprehensive climate legislation in the House. We look forward to committee mark-up of a strong bill, and encourage the committee to take this action before the end of the first session of this Congress.”
