Senate blow to climate change laws

By Andrew Ward and Sarah O’Connor in Washington

Published: April 2 2009 21:30 | Last updated: April 2 2009 21:30

Obama’s plan to push through climate change legislation as part of his $3,600bn (£2,508bn) federal budget appeared all but dead on Thursday after the Senate ruled out fast-track action on the issue.

A Republican-sponsored amendment passed on Wednesday night ruled that Congress should not try to set up a cap-and-trade system to regulate greenhouse gas emissions as part of the budget “reconciliation” process.

While not binding, the amendment, which drew support from more than 20 Democratic senators, showed the Obama administration had little chance of forcing through climate change measures as part of the budget.

It also underscored the difficulty that Obama will face winning support for his proposed cap-and-trade system even outside of the budget process, raising the possibility of the US arriving empty-handed at the next round of United Nations talks on climate change in Copenhagen in December.
