The Senator from the State of Oil Wants to Overturn EPA Regs on CO2

It appears that Lisa Murkowski is trying to overturn the EPA's notice of proposed rule making on carbon emissions:

Sen. Lisa Murkowski on Tuesday left open the possibility that she would seek a vote next week on stopping the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency from going forward with regulations to limit greenhouse-gas emissions.

"I do not believe and I don't believe that most of my colleagues in the Senate believe that the EPA is the entity that is the best suited to develop climate-change policy for this country," Ms. Murkowski (R., Alaska) told reporters. "I'm trying to get a time-out. I'm trying to allow the legislative process to proceed. I'm hopeful that we'll be able to have a vote that will allow for that discussion."

You know, somehow I think that the folks who don't come from oil (and coal) producing states might be a wee bit receptive, and there's also the whole veto thing to deal with.
