Smog Standards Are Just the Tip of the Regulatory Iceberg
Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON D.C. As Americans read yet another dismal unemployment report the
President should take a step further and place a moratorium on all new regulations until the nations unemployed are put back to work" said U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-Texas) responding to President Obamas decision to ask the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to withdraw new proposed smog standards.
The Presidents decision is welcome news and a step in the right direction but in reality smog standards are just the tip of the regulatory iceberg from this Administration said Cornyn.
Sen. Cornyn is an original cosponsor of S. 1438 the Regulation Moratorium & Job Preservation Act. The bill calls for a moratorium on burdensome federal regulations until the national unemployment rate falls to 7.7 below where it was when President Obama was sworn into office.
