Gephardt oil import fee plan sparks debate in Iowa
Five Democratic presidential hopefuls clashed over energy policy in Des Moines as Rep. Richard Gephardt urged an oil import fee to cut deficits and boost ethanol, while Bruce Babbitt labeled it gifts to oil companies. Dukakis backed ethanol expansion, Gore Jackson and others pressed federal action on smog and acid rain with recycling and waste reduction. The IPTV telecast marked the second environmental forum in a week.
