Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, told reporters Thursday that Republicans would try to pass a resolution blocking the Environmental Protection Agency from regulating greenhouse gas emissions. The senator said she believed they had enough support to get the resolution out of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee. It would be unlikely to get far in the full Senate though.

“For all intents and purposes, this is a veto of the (EPA) decision,” Murkowski said. She made her comments in a briefing hosted by the publication Energy Daily.
