View Photo »This is the fourth day on this bill, and we're only late this morning coming to our first vote. Even for the United States Senate, this is a slow pace
Clear differences have emerged among the Democratic chairmen of the six Senate committees with jurisdiction over climate change legislation. Sen. Max Baucus (D-Mont.), chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, and Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D-W.Va.), chairman of the Commerce Committee, who both represent sta...
This is about protecting our rights as Montanans and Americans ... Gun rights are guaranteed by the Constitution. It’s as simple as that.
Max Baucus' no vote in the [EPW] Committee establishes Baucus as the bill's credible opposition, the representative of money and industry, especially with Republicans excusing themselves from the process through either the certainty of their opposition or, in the case of a boycott, their literal absence

Boxer and Baucu...
As President Obama heads to the APEC leaders meeting later this week, I urge him to revitalise our relationship with these economies. Speak out. I urge the president to announce that the United States will be a robust participant in the Transpacific Partnership (TPP) negotiations

I am going work to get climate legislation that can get 60 votes through the U.S. Senate and signed into law
Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus, D-Mont., said today that the Senate is unlikely to approve major health care legislation this year that includes a pure form of the controversial government-operated insurance program, following White House signals over the weekend that President Obama did n...
Warren Buffett is known for investing in the future of America, and you can be sure I'll be keeping a close eye to make sure Montana producers get a fair shake on shipping rates
That assertion by Sen. Max Baucus, D-Mont., was a notable show of confidence coming in the midst of negotiations with Majority Leader Harry Reid and White House officials to finalize legislation that can satisfy liberal Democrats without alienating moderates — and get the 60 votes needed to advance in t...
We cannot afford a first step that takes us further away from a conceivable consensus on climate change
At a luncheon behind closed doors, Democrats said, liberals made impassioned pleas for a new government insurance plan, and they challenged the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, Max Baucus, Democrat of Montana, to defend his bill, which has no such public option ... Among the outspoken champions...

The bad news was the bill itself -- a small step forwa...
The legislation before us today is about our economy ... Montana, with our resource-based agriculture and tourism economies, cannot afford the unmitigated impacts of climate change. But we also cannot afford the unmitigated effects of climate change legislation.
The only people who will be at the negotiating table are Harry Reid, [Senate Finance Committee Chair] Max Baucus (D-Mont.), Sen. Chris Dodd and the White House.
Montana can't afford the unmitigated impacts of climate change ... But we also cannot afford the unmitigated effects of climate change legislation.
