Kerry-Lieberman climate bill includes coastal states opt-out
The long-awaited compromise climate change legislation that US Sens. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) and Joseph I.

Adjacent states could veto drilling if they expected to suffer significant damages from a crude oil spill, a summary of the proposal said.
