The Senate today voted against a resolution introduced by Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) that would have blocked the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) from regulating global warming emissions under the Clean Air Act. The resolution sought to rescind the EPA's finding that global warming emissions endanger public health. The Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) called Sen. Murkowski's resolution "an attack on science."
Blanche Lincoln co-sponsored the Murkowski amendment.
