Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said today (1/26/10) that skeptical Republicans and Democrats should throw their support behind climate change legislation not only because it's good for the economy and the environment, but because Congress desperately needs a win under its belt.
"We tried immigration. It's hard. And we failed. We tried Social Security. It's hard. And we failed. We tried health care. It's really hard. And it looks like we're going to have to start over again," Graham somberly told a luncheon audience of energy and climate advocates on the Hill. "On the energy, climate change front, I don't want to add that to the list. There is no reason in my mind that the Republican Party and the Democratic Party can't come together.

It seems Sen. Graham is leaning towards a climate bill. We need to call Senator Schumer to introduce an immigration bill and Senator Graham to support it and help bring it to the floor.
