Sununu attacks Shaheen, yet votes with the Bush White House to continue status quo energy policy that has resulted in record-high gas and food prices

(Manchester, NH) – Yesterday, John Sununu voted with the Bush White House and against closing the Enron loophole, which allows billion-dollar hedge funds and Wall Street traders to speculate on the cost of oil, artificially driving up the price of gas for New Hampshire drivers and generating bigger profits for the oil companies.  Then he attacked Jeanne Shaheen for being "out-of-touch."

RUBBERSTAMP RECORD: JOHN SUNUNU VOTES WITH BUSH WHITE HOUSE, AGAINST CLOSING ENRON LOOPHOLE, FUNDING WOOD-BASED BIOFUEL DEVELOPMENT

Sununu one of just 15 Senators to vote to continue Bush-Cheney energy policy that has resulted in record high gas and food prices

(Manchester, NH) – Today, John Sununu voted against the 2008 Farm Bill, which would expand key nutrition programs, including fruit and vegetable snack programs for kids and emergency funding for food banks, invest in energy independence and economic opportunity for rural communities and, as New Hampshire drivers struggle under record high gas prices, close the Enron loophole that is allowing reckless speculation by Wall Street traders to drive up the cost of gas in New Hampshire and across the country.  The bill also included $1 billion in funding to promote biofuels, including wood-based biofuels that would generate cleaner energy and create jobs in New Hampshire.

JOHN SUNUNU VOTES TO CONTINUE BUSH-CHENEY ENERGY POLICY, OPEN UP ANWR, ATLANTIC COASTAL WATERS TO DRILLING

Drilling would pad oil companies' profits while damaging national wilderness and doing little to bring gas prices down

(Manchester, NH) -- As John Sununu voted this afternoon to open both the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and Atlantic coastal waters up to drilling, former Governor Jeanne Shaheen reiterated her commitment to both an energy policy that ends our dependence on foreign oil and immediate steps to bring gas prices down for New Hampshire families.

JEANNE SHAHEEN RELEASES PLAN TO ADDRESS RISING FOOD PRICES, INVEST IN ALTERNATIVE FUELS WITHOUT IMPACTING GLOBAL FOOD SUPPLY

Shaheen proposes measures to protect market from price manipulation, shift tax incentives from corn-based ethanol to wood-based ethanol 

(Manchester, NH) – As food prices continue to climb, former Governor and current US Senate candidate Jeanne Shaheen today released several proposals to protect the market from food and oil price manipulation and shift tax incentives for corn-based ethanol to wood-based ethanol.  Shaheen believes we should invest in the expansion of cellulosic wood-based ethanol, which won't impact the global food supply and can be generated from resources right here in New Hampshire.
