| Rep. Markey - Energy Independence and Security Act |
 |
Rep. Ed Markey, Chairman of the Select
Committee for Energy Independence and Global
Warming, speaks in favor of the the Energy
Independence and Security Act to put us on a
path toward energy independence—to
strengthen national security, lower energy
costs, grow our economy and create new jobs,
and begin to reduce global warming.
Specifically, Congress is taking
groundbreaking steps to increase the
efficiency of our vehicles, making an
historic commitment to American grown
biofuels, requiring that 15 percent of our
electricity come from renewable sources, and
strengthening energy efficiency for a wide
range of products, appliances, lighting and
buildings to reduce energy costs to
consumers. The energy bill repeals tax breaks
for profit-rich oil companies, and invest
that money in clean renewable energy and new
American technologies. Not only would this
reduce our dependence on foreign oil, the
measure would also save consumers billions of
dollars.
