Rebecca Leber, ThinkProgress: ''Republicans have said they are for all forms of energy, but the Domestic Energy Production Act passed today shows much different priorities. While the energy package included many provisions to encourage oil and gas, clean energy was included only twice. GOP leaders did not even permit debate over amendments to include support for renewables and other forms of clean energy.''

The GOP s Crime Against Voters

Eugene Robinson, The Washington Post Writers Group: ''Spare us any more hooey about 'preventing fraud' and 'protecting the integrity of the ballot box.' The Republican-led crusade for voter ID laws is revealed as a cynical ploy to disenfranchise as many likely Democratic voters as possible, with poor people and minorities the main targets.''
