EPA opponent takes helm of Senate's top oversight panel
|
Life is about to get very interesting, indeed. | [WASHINGTONEXAMINER] A staunch opponent of President B.O.'s environmental agenda was formally made the head of the Senate environment committee Wednesday.
Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyo., was unanimously elected to head the Environment and Public Works Committee, which has direct oversight over the Environmental Protection Agency. The agency is a top target of the Republican-led Congress and President-elect Trump.
"Over the past eight years, a runaway Environmental Protection Agency has time and again issued cumbersome regulations that have limited job creation and energy development," Barrasso said. "Our committee will work closely with the next administration to remove these obstacles to economic growth, while protecting the environment."
Barrasso doggedly opposed Obama's agreeing to the Gay Paree climate change accord without Senate consent. He later tried to rescind the State Department's authority to send millions of dollars to the United Nations
...an organization originally established to war on dictatorships which was promptly infiltrated by dictatorships and is now held in thrall to dictatorships...
' Green Climate Fund, which is a key program under the Gay Paree deal meant to direct $100 billion per year by 2020 to help developing nations cope with the effects of climate change.
