Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) said the Department of Interior has been “foot-dragging” on listing the polar bear as an endangered species and has asked the department’s secretary to appear before the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee.
Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), ranking member of the committee, however, said, “Unfortunately, the polar bear is simply a pawn in a much bigger game of chess.
“It has become clear that listing the bear as a threatened species is not about protecting the bear but about using the ESA to achieve global warming policy that special interest groups cannot otherwise achieve through the legislative process”
