Democrats in the House of Representative who voted against Cap and Trade


Update: I made a mistake on Monday’s post! (I know, hard to believe!) I had Lisa Murkowski listed as a Senator from Arkansas. Wrong! She is a Senator from Alaska. I should have known the abbreviation since I had a tax client who lived in Alaska for years until she finally moved back to Arizona a couple of years ago. Sorry for the misinformation!

Tonight, I’m listing the Democrats who voted against the monstrosity of Cap and Trade in the House of Representatives. First, they deserve our thanks for not voting for the largest indirect tax increase in our history even though the bill passed in the House. Also, because some to many of them may also be in opposition to the monstrosity now before the House—Healthcare Nationalization which will also cost huge addition amounts of money and make matters worse and not better for a majority of the citizenry. Hopefully this is a transition post to more information about Healthcare Nationalization.
