"Leading the helm at the chamber is Tom Donahue, who has for the last 11 years also served as a member of the board of directors of Union Pacific Railroad, a large coal hauler." How do these guys always end up running things?

Much gratitude and kudos to these energy companies. The only way to rattle the chains of the US Chamber and other business entities is unfortunately in the pocket. Their ethics values along with a lot of the Congress was bought a long time ago. Again though, the tide is turning...it took a lot of guts for these initial companies to finally admit the harm American business as usual is doing to the environment. These companies need to be commended.

A dang-good job Exelon!

It is time for debate and trial of the warmist alarmists! They are wrong plain and simple. They are afraid to stand trial because they know they are wrong!

The climate scam was supported by the nuclear industry. All of the companies which protested the Chamber of Commerce demand that the case for human caused climate change be reviewed are NUCLEAR ENERGY CORPS.
