Congressional focus on exploring climate change strategies continues, however, the House and Senate Leadership appear to have concluded that moving a large, comprehensive "cap-and-trade" bill this session is not feasible.

Efforts are underway to advance energy efficiency, biofuels and carbon capture research and development legislation in both chambers. These initiatives, and others, will likely be combined into one package, and considered shortly after the Memorial Day recess on the House and Senate floors.
