House Speaker Nancy Pelosi heard Oregon panelists discuss how recent federal legislation will promote carbon-free energy, create thousands of skilled jobs and help communities cope with the onset of climate change.
Pelosi was flanked by two Oregon Democrats who made major contributions to that and other recent legislation during the discussion Tuesday, Sept. 6, at the Energy Trust of Oregon offices in Portland. They are Rep. Earl Blumenauer of Portland, a senior member of the tax-writing committee, and Rep. Suzanne Bonamici of Beaverton, who sits on the science committee.
