S.139 would establish a cap on emissions of greenhouse gases from covered sources that would be implemented in two phases beginning in 2010 and 2016, respectively. More recently, in October 2003, Senators McCain and Lieberman proposed an amended version of the bill, SA.2028, that included the first phase of emissions reductions beginning in 2010 but removed references to a second phase of reductions beginning in 2016. On May 11, 2004, Senator Mary Landrieu asked EIA to evaluate SA.2028.
