Membership in Congressional Renewable Energy Caucus Grows

[RenewableEnergyAccess.com] The House Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (RE/EE) Caucus today announced that Rep. Frank R. Wolf (R-VA) has joined the congressional group as its 221st participant bringing membership up to a majority of the voting Members of the U.S. House of Representatives. The body now includes 218 voting Members (138-D; 79-R; 1-I) representing 44 states as well as non-voting delegates from Washington DC, Virgin Islands, and American Samoa, making the RE/EE Caucus one of the largest caucuses in the U.S. Congress. Founded in 1995, the House RE/EE Caucus is co-chaired by Reps. Zach Wamp (R-TN) and Mark Udall (D-CO) with Reps. Vern Ehlers (R-MI), Chris Van Hollen (D-MD), Greg Walden (R-OR), and Ron Kind (D-WI) serving as vice-chairs.

This is very interesting. I was not aware that the House of Representatives had such a caucus. So now I'm curious: what does the caucus *do*? What has it *done* since 1995? And what does it plan to do now that it seems to represent a majority in the House? Further coverage from RE Access on this topic would be much appreciated!
