Climate Change Legislation Postponed Until 2009

FCNL had been urging senators to use the debate on the Boxer-Lieberman-Warner Climate Security Act of 2008 (S. 3036) as an opportunity to talk about the need for urgent action to address climate change. But a minority of senators blocked efforts to bring legislation to address harmful climate change to a vote on Friday, June 6. Find out about the vote and how your senators voted.
