Energy Bill Vote Left Out In Cold view story
Tuesday, February 21, 2006
DAVID LIGHTMAN - - Hartford Courant
| Neither a snowstorm, nor bitter cold, nor even a promise from the U.S. Senate majority leader could get Congress to approve extra money to help people with low incomes pay their energy bills this winter.
Members of Congress, in the middle of a "Presidents' Day recess" this week and not due back until Feb. 27, left town without acting on a proposal to add $1 billion to the low-income energy assistance program.
