CBO Analysis show climate bill will help poor families
By Liz Rose
Here are more facts that the Big Oil and Dirty Coal lobbyists don't want you to know about the new clean energy bill: read this Associated Press story about a just released Congressional Budget Office report that, according to the AP shows:
Low-income families will receive hundreds of dollars a year to help pay higher energy bills if Congress enacts the first-ever limits on the gases blamed for global warming, according to a new analysis.”
“A Congressional Budget Office analysis of the cost of global warming legislation working its way through the House estimates that low-income families could initially receive $161-$359 in credits or rebates, if the bill becomes law. That amount could rise to $282-$628 by 2019, depending on the family's size.”
