The House rejected a Democratic amendment Wednesday that would have put the chamber on record backing the widely held scientific view that global warming is occurring and humans are a major cause.

Lawmakers voted 184-240 against Rep. Henry Waxman’s (D-Calif.) amendment to a GOP-led bill that would strip the Environmental Protection Agency’s power to regulate greenhouse gases.
From Political Wire:
The only Republican to vote for the amendment is Rep. Dave Reichert (R-WA), while three Democrats voted against it.
Next time someone tells you there is no difference between R and D, remind them of this vote.
