Our children deserve clean air

I can't believe it. We start to work on clean energy, but we end up with a bill in the making that wouldn't require any more wind and solar power than is already in the works. Even worse, the bill would repeal parts of the Clean Air Act, preventing President Obama from cracking down on dirty power plants. The bill does have good parts, but Big Oil and Coal severely weaken it.

We could not only use clean air, but also the jobs that could be created in wind and solar industries. Other European countries are ahead of us on this. If we wanted to be clean, we would end up buying the tools and equipment to do it from other countries. Can't we do any manufacturing here? Our children and grandchildren deserve to breathe clean air.
