H.R.2454 (introduced 5/15/2009) Sponsor: Rep Waxman, Henry A. [CA-30]

[and-justice-for-all]

What is the issue with this bill? what were you wanting to see passed on this bill that was not? I am aware that there is the usual pork attached, it happens with every bill, something I think needs stopped.

But what are the issues here, I have received several emails from environmental groups who are pleased to see this bill passed. So would you be so kind to indulge me with your bitching.

1. kick...again

[Hekate]

2. I'll kick to see if anybody is out there. Good luck; the Eeyore Corps will be around...

... at some point and then you'll see if they can explain why environmental groups may be happy but they aren't.
