Dems join GOP in fight to block EPA climate rules

WASHINGTON – Two senior Democrats are joining a Republican effort in the House to block the Environmental Protection Agency from reducing the gases blamed for global warming.

Rep. Nick Rahall (RAY'-hahl) of West Virginia and Rep. Collin Peterson of Minnesota will sponsor a bill drafted by Republicans that bars the EPA from using federal law to control greenhouse gases. The legislation was being introduced Thursday in the House and Senate.
