                               RESOLUTION


 
  Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives regarding the 
  notice signed by the Administrator of the Environmental Protection 
    Agency Lisa Jackson on March 27, 2012, entitled ``Standards of 
 Performance for Greenhouse Gas Emissions for New Stationary Sources: 
                  Electric Utility Generating Units''.

    Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Representatives 
that--
            (1) Americans rely on coal and the inexpensive energy it 
        provides for nearly half of our energy needs;
            (2) the proposed rule entitled ``Standards of Performance 
        for Greenhouse Gas Emissions for New Stationary Sources: 
        Electric Utility Generating Units'' will likely lead to 
        increased energy costs for consumers, small business owners, 
        and manufacturers which would--
                    (A) result in the loss of American jobs;
                    (B) make American businesses less competitive; and
                    (C) damage our Nation's economic recovery; and
            (3) the Environmental Protection Agency should not be 
        setting energy policy for the Nation with environmental 
        regulations that for all practical purposes dictate fuel 
        choices for new power plants.
