HARRISBURG State Senate Republicans are continuing their fight against Gov. Tom Wolf’s attempt to join the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative.
In a party-line vote, the state Senate Environmental Resources and Energy Committee, chaired by Sen. Gene Yaw, R-Bradford/Lycoming/Sullivan/Susquehanna/Union, sent a letter to the state’s Independent Regulatory Review Commission urging its review of concerns expressed by numerous commentators, including those from organized labor leaders, business leaders and elected officials over the past year who have weighed in against the “CO2 Budget Trading Program,” proposed regulation – #7-559 (IRRC #3274).

Opposition continues to build against Governor Tom Wolf’s plan for Pennsylvania to join the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, also known as RGGI.
State Senator Joe Pittman announced that the Senate Environmental Resources and Energy Committee on Wednesday approved a letter to the Independent Regulatory Review Commission formally opposing the move. The IRRC is an independent agency of the state responsible for the review of regulations from nearly all state agencies, boards and commissions before they are put into effect.
On Wednesday, Pittman, who serves as the vice-chairman of the Environmental Resources and Energy Committee, voiced his objections to RGGI, saying that the regulations would ruin the local economy. He also once again asked Governor Wolf to come to his district to explain how the initiative would be effective in his district.
