In his weekly address, President Obama thanked Congress for passing his Economic Recovery and Reinvestment Act that would, among other things, make important infrastructural investments in renewable energy, broadband, and a smart grid. After signing the bill into law, Mr. Obama also said he would launch a new website, recovery.gov, that allows people to see where and how their $789 billion is being spent.
The Obama administration is struggling to follow through on promises with regard to health care and climate change because of a Republican party that seems to have no interest in constructive efforts to solve problems for the American people.
A few weeks ago Senator Roger Wicker (R-Miss.) called for a new energy solution. A solution that came in the form of 100 new nuclear power plants. That vision has not left the republicans’ eyes. And on Tuesday, Senator Mike Crapo (R-Idaho) added his two cents.
