Briefing - Aug. 24, 2008

CAPITO: Let me give you a quick briefing. Right now, Cuba is seeking to drill for oil just sixty miles off the Florida coast. They're coming for our oil. My solution? I support America becoming energy independent by drilling off our shores. We force the big oil companies to spend more of their record profits on funding renewable energy sources. And to put an end OPEC's power, I've written a bill that uses West Virginia clean coal. Our economy and our security are at risk. It's time to play hard ball. I'm Shelley Moore Capito and I approve this message.
