- <p> The green may finally have risen to the top. Buying the
- argument that the move would give the U.S. more clout in debates
- with environmental ministers from other countries, the Senate
- voted to elevate the Environmental Protection Agency to Cabinet
- level. The measure was sent to the House, where it died last
- year because of objections to a Republican amendment requiring
- government compensation to property owners affected by
- environmental restrictions. This year the controversial
- amendment was dropped, improving the odds significantly, though
- it's still not a sure shot.
