Murkowski and Begich Differ on EPA Climate Change Response

WASHINGTON -- Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski has become the face of an all-out assault on the Environmental Protection Agency, but she won't be joined in that fight by her Democratic counterpart from Alaska, Sen. Mark Begich.

Begich and six other Democrats last month signed on to a letter authored by Sen. John Rockefeller of West Virginia asking the EPA to elaborate on how the agency planned to move forward with regulating greenhouse gas emissions blamed for warming the earth.
