More than 35 Members of Congress joined T. Boone Pickens for a photo on the steps of the United States Capitol to celebrate the first anniversary of The Pickens Plan, July 8, 2009. These Members of Congress represent the nearly 70 co-sponsors of H.R. 1835, the NAT GAS Act.
Shortly after this photo was taken, Boone was escorted to the U.S. Senate side of the Capitol to participate in the introduction of the Senate version of the NAT GAS Act, S. 1408 by Sen. Robert Menendez of New Jersey and Sen. Orrin Hatch of Utah.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (Nevada) is an original co-sponsor of S. 1408.
