Dems seek climate vote on post-Sandy aid bill

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) want to use debate over post-Hurricane Sandy aid to put lawmakers on the record on climate change.
His amendment declares the “sense of the Senate” that mitigating the effects of “extreme weather,” including curbing humans’ contribution to climate change, is in the nation’s economic interest.
Whitehouse and three colleagues proposed attaching the language to the $60.4 billion recovery and reconstruction bill that’s currently on the Senate floor.
But with dozens of proposed amendments piling up, Whitehouse and his three co-sponsors will face long odds landing the plan on the list of amendments that will be voted on.
