"House GOP Leaders Pledge To Oppose Climate Tax"

"The entire House GOP leadership team has registered its opposition to climate legislation that raises revenue, underscoring the long odds that taxing carbon emissions has in negotiations on the fiscal cliff."

"The Tea Party group Americans for Prosperity greeted Wednesday’s election of the House GOP leadership team by pointing out that the lawmakers are among the signers of the group’s “no climate tax” pledge.

Signers agree to 'oppose any legislation relating to climate change that includes a net increase in government revenue.'"
