摘要

On Oct 19, 2007, Senators Joseph Lieberman and John Warner introduced the Climate Security Act ("CSA"). The CSA set forth a detailed framework for establishing a federal cap and trade system for greenhouse gases in the United States. The CSA was assigned to the Senate Environment and Public Works COmmittee ("EPW") where it received a favorable vote of 12-8 allowing it to proceed toward full Senate debate. The CSA received several substantive changes while before EPW, but retained its primary design features. Then, in an effort to give the bill wider appeal before being considered by the full Senate, Senators Lieberman and Warner along with Senator Barbara Boxer5 replaced the initial bill with a substitute version providing additional measures for controlling cost. In the end these final efforts to achieve wider support were still insufficient, and the bill was unable to achieve the sixty votes necessary to reach cloture (forcing the end to a Republican lead filibuster) and requiring a vote on the bill. Despite the non-passage of the CSA, the bill did provide the clearest indication yet of what US federal climate change law will look like - and with both the Republican and Democratic candidates for President supporting a mandatory cap and trade system the chances of such passage seems likely under the next Administration. This article summarizes the key components of the CSA both as voted out of EPW and as substituted prior to full debate.
