Environmental groups push to defeat Congress's historic climate bill

Original: Congress drafted a historic climate bill. Environmental groups want to kill it.

US lawmakers have drafted a major climate bill, but leading environmental groups are urging its defeat rather than its passage. The unusual split on the Democratic side has surfaced in coverage by The Hill, which framed the fight as a battle over whether flawed compromise legislation is better than no bill at all. The disagreement highlights tensions over concessions made to win support, and it leaves the bill's fate in Congress uncertain.

Why now: Environmental advocates' opposition to their allies' flagship climate legislation is an unexpected intra-party fight playing out right now.
