The Hill: Pelosi looks to load up drilling bill By Mike Soraghan and Jared Allen
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) may be ready to allow a vote on offshore drilling, but that doesn’t mean she’s going to make it easy on the Republicans who’ve been goading her for weeks on energy.
As she announced her willingness to hold a drilling vote Monday night, she stressed that it would have to be part of a larger energy package. And the contents of that package might include some items that would be tough for Republicans and the energy industry to swallow, like a renewable portfolio standard and the Democrats’ signature “use it or lose it” legislation.
