COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - An international deal to control global warming announced on Friday by President Barack Obama will propel the passage of a domestic climate change bill through the Senate, Senator John Kerry said.
"With this in hand, we can work to pass domestic legislation early next year to bring us across the finish line," Kerry said.
Legislation to reduce U.S. emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas pollutants narrowly passed the House of Representatives in June, but has been stuck in the Senate for months.
