Western Govs Hope to Sway Future Energy Policy. By Matt Joyce, AP, July 2, 2008. "Citing a lack of federal leadership, the nation's Western governors want to draft a national energy policy they hope will influence the next presidential administration. Governors participating in the final day of the Western Governors' Association meeting in Wyoming said their resource-rich region is well positioned to take the lead on the issue... Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman said, 'This group is very, very serious about putting forward a policy recommendation to the next administration.' Tuesday's meeting wrapped up three days of discussions on issues related to energy, climate change, water supply and wildlife habitat. Over the next several months, representatives from the governors' offices will craft the energy policy proposal."
