Senator: Obama wants spiking energy costs: President Obama is nominating more radical personnel for his second term than he did four years ago, and some of the most aggressive parts of his agenda center on energy and environmental policy, according to a top Senate Republican.
Sen. David Vitter, R-La., is the top Republican on the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee. He is vowing tough scrutiny of two top Obama nominees and says the Obama energy policy still suggests the president is fine with Americans paying much more for the energy they consume.
Ernest Moniz is Obama’s choice to lead the Energy Department, but some of his recent comments are resurrecting concerns that the Obama administration is seeking to force a transition to renewable energies by making our current energy patterns financially unsustainable. In an interview with the Switch Energy Project, Moniz said the problem is that it’s cheaper to release carbon emissions than to contain them.
