House GOP Conference Releases Video on Democrats’ “Cap and Tax” SchemePosted by Kevin Boland on April 23rd, 2009
Today, the House Republican Conference, led by Rep. Mike Pence (R-IN), released a web video highlighting the stark differences between the Democrats’ energy plan of “cap and tax” and the House Republicans’ “all of the above” energy strategy: The Democrats’ plan on energy is to impose a new national energy tax on every American household in hopes of forcing families to use less energy. Republicans reject that notion, and have put forward a better solution to increase production of American energy in an environmentally safe manner, promote more conservation and efficiency, and encourage the use of alternative and renewable fuels. The Republican strategy would promote a cleaner, healthier environment, and utilize all of our natural resources - wind, solar, natural gas, and environmentally responsible American energy production to create American jobs and help spur economic growth. The House Republican Conference is continuing to live blog the Energy and Commerce Committee hearings this week. Visit the House Republican Conference’s blog at GOP.gov/blog for more info. Boehner to Dem Leaders: Welcome Back … Now Give the American People their Energy VotePosted by Nick on September 8th, 2008
House Republicans today welcomed their well-rested Democratic colleagues back to work after their five week break. Gathering on the steps of the Capitol, Leader Boehner and House Republicans continued to demand, as they did through the month of August, that Speaker Pelosi schedule a vote on the American Energy Act (H.R. 6566), an “all of the above” plan to lower gas prices by increasing American energy production, encouraging conservation, and promoting development of alternative fuels. Photos from the event can be seen below or on Leader Boehner’s Flickr photostream. More information on the event here. 8-11 GOP Uprising Live Blog [2:45]Posted by Nick on August 11th, 2008
