Congressman Joe Barton Receives Earth Killer Award


Joe Barton (R-TX), Chair of the United States House Committee on Energy and Commerce will receive the first annual "Earth Killer" award. The award, created by Hope for Peace and Justice was designed as a way to highlight public servants who "have worked tirelessly to remove and prevent regulations that would ensure clean air and water for future generations."

The mock ceremony will take place Sunday, April 23 at the Cathedral of Hope during its 9 and 11 a.m. worship services. The Earth Killer Award will be presented in conjunction with the Cathedral of Hope’s observance of Earth Day. Congressman Barton has been invited to attend in order to receive the award in person, but he has not yet accepted the invitation. What a surprise!
