House to take up measures hitting Obama environmental plans

Published



The House likely will vote on three measures opposing President Obama’s environmental agenda this week.

The House Rules Committee on Tuesday is scheduled to take up a measure to delay the Environmental Protection Ageny’s new ozone standards, a resolution against a carbon tax and a resolution expressing lawmakers’ opposition to Obama’s $10.25 tax on a barrel of oil. That could lead to a floor vote on the measures as early as Wednesday.
