Feb 3 - Four States May Follow California's Lead on TV Energy Efficiency
Following California's lead, four more states take on energy efficiency requirements for television.

They include Massachusetts, New York, Wisconsin and Washington:
Massachusetts - House Bill 3124 and Senate Bill 1524 concerning electronics
New York - Assembly Bill 9387 concerning televisions
Washington - House Bill 2416 and Senate Bill 6489 concerning electronics
