Big oil backs the Murkowski resolution.

So whose side are we on?

Imagine 100 senators, not scientists, not health experts, deciding what pollutant is dangerous and what pollutant is not. Personally, I believe it is ridiculous for politicians to make this scientific decision.

For someone to come to this floor and say carbon, too much carbon is not dangerous, then I'm sorry, we're going to have to look at these pictures, even though we don't want to.
