Lucas Warns About Global Warming Bill
In advance of a House Agriculture Committee meeting on Thursday about the impact global warming legislation will have on agriculture, Rep. Frank Lucas gave a short speech on the House floor today warning that the bill “has the potential to permanently damage the standard of living for every man, woman, and child for decades to come.”
Lucas, of Cheyenne, is the top Republican on the Agriculture Committee.
He said, “A thousand-page bill of this magnitude deserves thoughtful consideration and debate. Instead, Speaker Pelosi is rushing it through Congress to the detriment of all of us.”
The bill is expected to come to the House floor some time this summer.

I appreciate Mr. Lucas stepping in with his opinion and hopefully getting others to stop for a change and really look over what is being voted on. In the short time Ms. Pelosi has been speaker it seems like she has a rush to pass bills and in the end they come back to bite her, unfortunately it hurts the rest of us as well. Hang in there Mr. Lucas and make sure it gets done right.
