Bachmann doesn't support the idea, and says if it passes later this year, it won't created the so-called "green" jobs that's been promised.

President Obama wants his Cap and Trade proposal passed by the end of August.
Definition of Cap and Trade:
Cap and Trade is a method of managing pollution. The government would first set a "cap" on pollution. Then companies are issued credits, essentially licenses to pollute, based on how large they are. If the company comes in below it's cap, it has extra credits which it can "trade".
