Wake Up to Climate Change Legislation!

November 2007
 
 
 
Watch the new U.S. Chamber video OPPOSING the Lieberman-Warner Climate Bill.
 
On December 5, the Senate will try to move the Lieberman-Warner climate bill through committee and to the Senate floor. According to the Washington Post, this bill will require a wholesale transformation of the American way of life.
 
If this bill becomes law, 3.4 million Americans will lose their jobs. American GDP will decline by $1 trillion. And American consumers will be forced to pay as much as $6 trillion to cope with carbon constraints.*
 
The only way to address the climate change challenge is through technology and energy efficiency. This bill avoids both.
 
It’s time to Wake Up to Climate Change Legislation.
 
Call your Senator toll free at 866-346-8683 (VOTE) and tell them to vote NO on the Lieberman-Warner Climate Bill.
 
*Testimony of Anne E. Smith, Ph.D, before the Committee on Environment and Public Works, United States Senate, November 8, 2007.
