Senators Want Breakdown of Cap and Trade Costs
Hoosier AG Today
Senators Mike Johanns and Senate Ag Committee Ranking Member Saxby Chambliss have asked Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack to come up with an analysis of the cost of cap-and-trade legislation for agricultural producers. Johanns wants to see the analysis organized by commodity and by state. He says the USDA analysis is important because cap-and-trade will have tremendously different consequences for different agricultural industries and different regions of the country.
