INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (WOWO): Governor Mike Pence is asking Hoosier lawmakers in Washington to support measures that would block the EPA's proposed regulations on carbon dioxide emission at power plants.

Pence says the plans in in place will increase costs by 30 percent over the next seven years. He says it also threatens the supply of electricity.

He made that request in a letter to Indiana's Senators and Representatives. You can find that letter, here.
