Max Baucus (D-Mont.)
Wall Street Journal It’s common understanding that climate-change legislation will not be brought up on the Senate floor and pass the Senate this year.
Tom Harkin (D-Iowa)
AgricultureOnline Quite frankly, I don’t know that we’re going to do anything on it until next year because we have the health bill.
John Kerry (D-Mass.)
Politico As soon as it is practical with respect to the health care debate and financial regulator reform this legislation will come to the floor of the Senate and the United States Senate will do its part.
Wall Street Journal I don’t want to create artificial deadlines which get in the way of our being methodical about this. The main thing to do here is to build the adequate base of support and consensus.
Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.)
Politico I feel the meetings that Sen. Kerry and Graham and I have had so far that we are making some progress here and we can move it along.
Richard Lugar (R-Ind.)
Wall Street Journal I don’t see any climate bill on the table right now that I can support. We really have to start from scratch again.
