President-elect Barack Obama traveled to Capitol Hill Monday to gauge congressional support of his proposed $775 billion economic stimulus package. He met with Senate and House leaders from both sides of the aisle.
The stimulus plan includes billions in tax cuts for workers and businesses and billions in tax incentives for job creation.
The president-elect urged Congress to pass the stimulus plan within one month.
The Environmental Law and Policy Center (ELPC) is asking its supporters to mail their Senators and Representatives a letter requesting that the stimulus plan invest in green jobs.Via Mother Earth News
