Jan. 22, 2015, Fairfax, Va.—Americans for Limited Government President Rick Manning today issued the following statement urging passage of the Blunt-Inhofe amendment against the China climate deal:
“President Obama’s China climate change deal puts the United States economy and our workers at a competitive disadvantage and the Senate is urged to pass a sense of the Senate resolution opposing its implementation without having gone through the full ratification process.
“American workers continue to be hurt by President Obama’s extremist environmental policies with stagnant wages and lost job growth opportunities. Obama’s China deal would further escalate the cost of electricity stunting the rebuilding our nation’s manufacturing base.The Senate must stand up for America’s workforce by making it clear that the President’s China climate deal should not be implemented.”
