American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009111th Congress: 2009-2010 To create clean energy jobs, achieve energy independence, reduce global warming pollution and transition to a clean energy economy. This is the so-called Waxman-Markey cap and trade bill and was considered more comprehensive and ambitious than both the Lieberman-Warner Bill and President Obama’s proposal. For more information, see Climate Change Legislation: Where Does it Stand?. This bill never became law.
This bill was proposed in a previous session of Congress. Sessions
of Congress last two years, and at the end of each session all
proposed bills and resolutions that haven't passed are cleared from the books.
Members often reintroduce bills that did not come up for debate
under a new number in the next session.
