Note that Grassley is on the energy conference committee.  

The committee chair Barton is setting a very aggressive schedule to get the conference resolved THIS WEEK, so that the final bill can get voted through both Houses next week before Congress adjourns on July 29.  Bush wants the bill on his desk before the August recess.  We'll see how successful they are in doing this.  There are many issues of contention between the two versions of the bill.   Phyllis Mains
