Nation's energy problems head to House debate
The House takes up a 380 page energy bill drafted largely as President Carter asked. Debate starts Monday and may run most of the week. The package aims to cut oil and natural gas use while boosting industry efficiency and tax credits for home installation. It envisions higher energy prices, changes in power rates, and federal price controls on natural gas. Republicans offer a rival program, including a gasoline tax hike and mass transit funding, while administration lobbyists push for higher gasoline taxes to curb consumption.
