The state may soon pass a groundbreaking measure that would charge major fossil fuel companies billions of dollars for their past emissions. The measure is modeled after the Environmental Protection Agency's Superfund program, under which companies are required to pay for the cleanup of their toxic waste sites.

Supporters of the bill say this first-of-a-kind legislation could be a model for the rest of the country.
