From the Helena Independent Record: "Montana counties would receive $93.3 million over four years under a rural communities and school program extension tucked into the energy bill that the House will vote today."
The House passed the CLEAN Energy Act of 2007, H.R. 6, today in roll call vote 1140. THOMAS provides the latest text of the bill and a Congressional Research Service (CRS) summary of many of the provisions of the bill.
This large bill addresses issues such as energy efficiency, biofuels, renewable energy, vehicle emissions, fuel economy, price gouging, and the secure rural schools initiative.
