A vote on the massive climate change bill, the American Clean Energy and Security Act, could come Friday in the U.S. House of Representatives.
At this point, First District Congressman Alan Mollohan and Third District Congressman Nick Rahall are not revealing how they’ll vote. Second District Congresswoman Shelley Moore Capito says she will vote against it, saying it will negatively impact coal states like West Virginia.
Former Virginia Governor George Allen agrees with Congresswoman Capito.
“It’s a draconian approach that’s going to increase our electricity prices, gasoline prices, food prices and cost us, literally, millions of jobs and it will be imposed only on the United States. India, Russia, China, they’re not going to impose this on their citizens,” Allen said on Thursday’s MetroNews Talkline.
