Bringing in Patrick Kennedy from Rehab [Kathryn Jean Lopez]
Pelosi delivers on a Friday night (219-212). Via the DCCC:
Kathryn —
Today is truly a day for the history books!
A short time ago, the House passed the historic American Clean Energy and Security Act. In doing so, we took a monumental step to get America running on clean energy, create millions of new jobs, strengthen our security, and reduce pollution in the air.
This legislation was masterfully written by two longtime champions for building a clean energy economy in America and aggressively fighting climate change — Chairman Henry Waxman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee and Chairman Ed Markey of the Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming.
Most of all, this victory belongs to you. It is directly because of your grassroots support and the leadership of President Obama that progress on climate change is indeed happening in Washington.
Thank you for making this good news possible.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi
