Barack Obama continues to use the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to try and work around Congress and implement CO2 restrictions via regulatory action, without so much as a vote on this incredibly important issue!  It’s nothing more than a “backdoor cap and trade scheme” that must be stopped at all costs to prevent further damage to our fragile, recovering economy.

Fortunately, Senator James Inhofe (R-OK) and Representative Fred Upton (R, MI-6) have recently introduced “The Energy Tax Prevention Act of 2011” (S. 482 in the Senate & H.R. 910 in the House).  This bold legislation would completely strip EPA of its ability to use the Clean Air Act to regulate greenhouse gases, effectively stopping Obama’s back door cap and trade strategy dead in its tracks.

The House took an important first step and passed H.R. 910 by an overwhelming margin - now the Senate must act.  Call your U.S. Senators and tell them its time to pass "The Energy Tax Prevention Act of 2011" (S. 482 & H.R. 910)!
