Surely our representatives would not buy that argument? Well, here is Mary Bono Mack (R-CA) after she vote for Crap and Trade:
"The last thing I want is the EPA coming in and regulating every small business and farm in California. This federal bill is actually LESS stringent than the regulations we're seeing coming our way as a result of AB32. Furthermore, this legislation REMOVES the authority for the EPA to regulate GHG's, and also puts the brakes on the State's regime."
According to Bono, Crap and Trade is a much better deal.
But business leaders oppose Crap and Trade, right?
From the WSJ article: An EPA endangerment finding "could result in a top-down command-and-control regime that will choke off growth by adding new mandates to virtually every major construction and renovation project," U.S. Chamber of Commerce President Thomas Donohue said in a statement. "The devil will be in the details, and we look forward to working with the government to ensure we don't stifle our economic recovery," he said, noting that the group supports federal legislation.
Somebody in the Dem camp is diabolically clever at picking off senators who at least pretend to be opposed in princliple to the far left's legislative agenda. Whoever that is, he/she may be Mephistopheles in disguise. I am very concerned when I read what politicians and "business leaders" say.
They probably got a bribe for their districts. Is that Sonny Bono’s second wife? Sonny was elected with the 1994 wave, fond memories!

LOL! Man, you ain’t kidding!
