Huntsman's climate position too hot for legislature

Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman was issued a stern warning from his state's legislature today. The House passed a resolution (51-19) urging the governor to withdraw from the Western Climate Initiative.

The Salt Lake Tribune:

.... the nonbinding measure would send a message to Utah's chief executive that he overstepped his bounds by participating in energy policy that could affect the economic viability of many of the state's businesses.

You think a nonbinding measure's going to get Jon Huntsman 2.0's attention? I've got an American economy to sell you.

Currently, seven states participate in the initiative. For more information, click here.
