Posted Tue Apr 14 2009: from Lawrence Journal-World & 6News:
New battle expected after Gov. Sebelius vetoes coal-burning power plant bill http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1239722033
It's a showdown over coal-burning power plants again. On Monday, as expected, Gov. Kathleen Sebelius vetoed legislation that would allow construction of the two 700-megawatt plants in southwest Kansas. She vetoed three similar bills last year. In her newest veto message Monday, Sebelius said of the legislation, "What was a bad idea last year, is an even worse idea today." President Barack Obama is moving toward regulating carbon dioxide emissions, and Kansas doesn't need the plants for its own energy needs, she said.
