Were working to slash red tape and promote job creation Brady says
Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON D.C. A White House that touts itself as the most transparent in history and claims to want to promote American manufacturing should embrace these bills and encourage the Senate to pass them" said Cong. Kevin Brady (R-TX) Chairman of the Joint Economic Committee as the U.S. House of Representatives passed three new bills aimed at making the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) more transparent and accountable. The legislation prohibits the EPA from finalizing regulations unless the scientific data behind the legislation is made public and available for independent analysis.
The bills also seek to make the EPAs Scientific Advisory Board less political by requiring the board to be comprised of individuals with scientific and technical training and backgrounds and to include members from local governments.
The EPA will be also be required to increase transparency and reduce delays with their permitting process under the Clean Air Act potentially kick-starting stalled manufacturing projects and creating new jobs.
Americas energy renaissance should be a huge American manufacturing boon creating tens of thousands good-paying jobs for the American people" said Brady.
Instead the President has threatened to veto these bills choosing to side with radical environmentalists and unaccountable EPA bureaucrats over American families and small businesses."
House Republicans are working to slash the red tape currently stalling this growth giving our local businesses the breathing room they need to expand and create new jobs."
