WASHINGTON, June 26 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Maggie Fox, President and CEO of the Alliance for Climate Protection, today issued the following statement on the passage of the American Clean Energy and Security Act out of the House of Representatives:

"Today's historic vote in the House of Representatives is a momentous victory for our nation and our planet as we seek to build a clean energy economy in the 21st century and enact bold solutions to the climate crisis. The Senate must move ahead quickly to join the House in passing climate and energy legislation that the President can sign into law - only then can we move forward with millions of clean energy jobs, end our reliance on foreign oil and speed America's transition to clean, affordable energy.

"We want to thank those members of the House of Representatives who stepped up to make history and move our nation and the world forward. They truly do represent the best of what this nation can do when confronted with great challenges and the opportunity to lead."
