U.S. Senate Flushes Another $1.6 Billion On Energy Bill - They Just Don't Get
 |
WASHINGTON April 20, 2016; The AP reported that The Senate overwhelmingly approved a far-reaching energy bill Wednesday that reflects significant changes in U.S. oil and natural gas production over the past decade and boosts alternative energy sources such as wind and solar power.
The bill also would speed federal approval of projects to export liquefied natural gas to Europe and Asia, where prices are higher than in the U.S. following a yearlong boom in domestic gas production.
With its 85-12 vote, the Senate backed its first ambitious energy bill in nearly a decade.
