Senate debate schedule today and my live blogging

June 3, 2008

From Hill Heat:

The Senate will convene at 10am. Morning business until 11am….

Following morning business, the Senate will resume post-cloture consideration of the motion to proceed to the Lieberman-Warner Climate Security Act of 2008 (S. 3036).

The Senate will recess for the Weekly Caucus Lunches from 12:30pm till about 2:15pm.

I will continue to (partially) live blog this. Since Boxer-Liebermann-Warner won’t become law — and because the next president will (hopefully) wipe the slate clean on the contents of real climate bill — this debate is mostly symbolic and rhetorical.

What I think is valuable is to get a sense of each individual Senator’s thinking — or lack thereof — on this issue, since the vast majority will be around next year. So I won’t keep blogging on what Boxer and Inhofe says, but I will try to provide a sense of what each Senator believes.
