Many of the country’s biggest states have set up various carbon pricing
mechanisms to curb greenhouse gas emissions. And while most of these
programs have succeeded at lowering emissions and making money in the
process, the idea is still no closer to becoming federal policy a decade
after the last attempt famously died on the Senate floor. Today,
POLITICO’s Debra Kahn and Anthony Adragna explain why carbon pricing
isn’t gaining momentum in Washington.
