This decrease in cost would open the prospect of running for office up for a larger number of citizens. Every regulation needs periodic review to make sure its costs and benefits are what the legislation intended. Always guard against unintended consequences. It is very important to protect the environment. There is substantial evidence that the global warming theory is simply wrong.
Drastic action based on mere conjecture is unwise.
4 Rep. David Price I have fought against anti-environment legislative riders, including those that threaten to undermine EPA's authority to implement the Clean Air Act. The EPA has made great strides in recent years in reducing air pollution emissions, including stricter standards for vehicles and fuels, implementation of Phase 2 of the acid rain program, and controls on mercury emissions. Recently finalized ozone regulations will require North Carolina, and other states to make substantial reductions in emissions of nitrogen oxides, with a large portion of the cuts to come from coal-fired utility plants. Protecting public health and the environment should be our paramount concern and EPA should not be hindered in carrying out its responsibilities. Finally, we can no longer ignore the challenge of global warming.
