    Dec 2, 2015

  • In challenge to Senate, Obama says parts of global climate deal must be legally binding

    Dec 2, 2015

    LE BOURGET, France — President Barack Obama said Tuesday that parts of the global warming deal being negotiated in Paris should be legally binding on the countries that sign on, setting up a potential fight with Republicans at home.
