> It would amend the Naval Petroleum Reserves Production Act of 1976 to repeal provisions governing oil and gas leasing in the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska

The statement neglects to mention whether the change promotes or protects.

Webmaster

Thank you for your comment, Neil. The information in our summary is from the summary provided by the Congressional Research Service, which is itself unclear on this point. We are working on ways to make more, better information about the meanings of bills available. Sorry for the lack of clarity on your question at this point.

Neil

Hi Webmaster.
I'm not good at legalspeak. I'm glad to hear I wasn't having a reading-comprehension problem. :)
Thanks.

Neil

Well, my Hon. Rep. Kajorski voted For the bill. So I sent him an email asking for a translation of the Alaskan issue. If he replies, I'll let you know.
Thanks.

This bill seems to be a good first step, but I worry about the possible mis-appropriation of funds. There is nothing outlining where the $$ is to be spent and by whom.

Neil

Well, that was all January 23rd.

Today is Jan 31, and no reply from my representitive.

Either he doesn't know, or he doesn't care.

They don't care anymore. They care about staying in office, and corporate campaign contributions get/keep them in office.

Votes aren't counted anymore, only dollars. Peace.

Charles -

You hit the nail on the head, and that's always been the #1 problem with "clean energy" government programs. No effort is made to intelligently and honestly determine the most viable clean energy solutions for fund appropriation. As a result almost all of it goes to waste on eternally unviable solutions or solutions that merely shift the polution from one industry to another (example: hydrogen generation).

McAdams

The voters should insist upon the "Honesty and Clarity in Naming Bills Act."
Not that many years ago, a CLEAN Energy Act would have all petro forms. Now, it just means decimating the nation's last remaining rain forest.

McAdams

"precluded" all petro forms, that is....

TIE

good point DAVE0511. When a problem has been identified the (possible)Solutions are what is needed.
