WASHINGTON, Nov. 8, 2010 (AP Online delivered by Newstex) -- A leading House Republican climate skeptic says he wants to preserve a House committee created by Democrats on global warming.
Wisconsin Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner, the committee's top Republican, said in a statement Monday that Republicans can use the panel to oversee the Obama administration's actions to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Sensenbrenner says a cap on those emissions would cost millions of jobs. He is in line to become chairman of the committee when the GOP takes control of the House next year.
Some Republicans have already called for the abolition of the panel, formally called the Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming. They have argued it's a waste of money.
