From the article:
---------------
"Vermont House of Representatives passed by a unanimous voice vote, J.R.H 54, a joint resolution urging Congress to eliminate the Enron Loophole. "
....
"The price for benchmark U.S. crude oil on September was $68 per barrel. This week the price hit $109. Has world demand suddenly skyrocketed over the past six months? Has a major-producing country halted production? The answer is that speculators on Wall Street are driving up the price of oil and making billions while most Vermonters are struggling to pay for their gasoline and heating bills."
