On Meet the Press last week White House energy advisor Carol Browner said the Obama administration had not given up hope on passing energy legislation by the end of the year. According to EENEws at least one energy measure will see congressional action this week, an alternative vehicles bill will receive a procedural vote, although efforts to pass it could be stifled by politics. Lawmakers will also keep pushing other energy measures including a renewable electricity mandate, an oil-spill response bill and an extension of expiring tax credits, although an already-crowded lame-duck calendar could leave little time to approve them.
