Smith: EPA Failing to Comply with Mine Spill Investigation

Texas Insider Report: Washington D.C.

These documents are essential to the Committees ongoing investigation and our upcoming hearing on September 9^th. But more importantly this information matters to the many Americans directly affected in western states who are still waiting for answers from the EPA. Even in the face of self-imposed environmental disaster this administration continues to prioritize its extreme agenda over the interests and well-being of Americans. EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy is currently crusading on climate change action in Japan while President Obama who has yet to visit the areas affected by the spill is touring the U.S. to tout EPAs latest regulation that will do little to impact climate change and will only further burden Americans with higher electric bills. It is no wonder the majority of Americans feel Washington no longer works for them."
