SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - GOP Senate candidate Carly Fiorina appeared on a national cable news show Wednesday asserting that California's law to fight global warming is killing jobs, but a review shows its economic effects remain uncertain. In an interview on CNBC's "Closing Bell," Fiorina said she is trying to unseat Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer in part because of the lawmaker's push for federal greenhouse gas legislation inspired by California's 2006 climate law, called the Global Warming Solutions Act but commonly referred to as AB32.
