Bonham Expects Carbon Bill Movement Next Week

Oregon 59th District State Representative Daniel Bonham is expecting a bill on the long-discussed cap-and-trade carbon reduction program will move in the Legislature next week.  The Dalles Republican says it is in Ways and Means after moving out of committee on a party-line vote.  Bonham remains skeptical that the program would have much of an impact on dealing with climate change, and he doesn’t believe a jurisdiction can be found where it has.  Bonham says Republicans have offered amendments to make the program as close to revenue neutral as possible, but he is unsure whether that can gain traction.
