This paper summarizes the key differences between S. 1733, the "Clean Energy Jobs and American Power Act of 2009," sponsored by senators Kerry and Boxer, and its counterpart bill in the House, H.R. 2454. With regard to funding for internatioal adaptation, there are some differences in the percentages of allocated allowances as well as in the estimated value of emissions allowances.
