Denny Rehberg (R-Montana) for his excellent decision to put the (relatively few) documents the Interior Department has turned over related to the Internal National Monument document request. You can pull up the documents here: http://rehberg.house.gov/uploads/DeptofInterior.zip. I would highly suggest you take a look at them. It is apparent that Fish and Wildlife Service and the National Park Service also had sections with proposals in the Internal Document but the full document is being withheld. CEQ was clearly involved and certain Forest Service and Agriculture people were brought in at a certain point. It was clearly tightly controlled as far as who participated. Interior is still withholding 2,016 documents. The federal government is obviously planning to crush economic activity in the Western United States and is hiding the fact from the American public. We must force this administration to stop hiding the evidence and stop trying to destroy basic industries that keep us all alive. -Ron Arnold, CDFE Executive Vice President 05/13/2010 THE CLIMATE LOBBY Questions Posed for Kerry, Lieberman on New Climate-Energy Bill CFACT.org "Senators have some explaining to do" -- CFACT is a long-time Center ally with an important analysis of the disastrous change in public policy now before the Senate. read more. 05/12/2010 ENERGY Western Caucus Opposes Kerry-Lieberman Cap and Tax Proposal robbishop.house.gov (Congressional Western Caucus) "It is unacceptable to expect Americans to foot the bill for bad policies that do nothing more than advance political agendas here in Washington.
