“Earl Pomeroy (D-N.D.) has a bill that would keep the EPA from regulating greenhouse gases at all unless approved by Congress.”

Here's catch, Dems want the CO2 Cap And Trade First. If they are serious, congress would declare CO2 a non pollutant.

“I am not about to let some Washington bureaucrat dictate new public policy that will raise our electricity rates and put at risk the thousands of coal-related jobs in our state,” said Pomeroy.

So the idea is, "We don't want the EPA to raise our electricity rates, we want congress to do it?"

Maybe, but in any case I don't think they have 30 votes for crap and trade in the senate, let alone 60.
