Now you should cry John
House Republicans, joined by a handful of Democrats, are making good on their campaign promises to attack the EPA and make life easier for heavy polluters but harder for actual life. Last night, the House passed its short-term government funding measure, which funds the government until March 4 and takes a hatchet to funding for environmental protection. Speaker Boehner, seemingly overlooking the irony, said, “Cutting federal spending is critical to reducing economic uncertainty, encouraging private-sector investment, and creating a better environment for job creation in our country.”
Specifically, the bill takes a huge chunk out of the budget of the EPA, the government body that protects our water, air, and earth. The EPA’s funding was cut by $3 billion and the Energy Department, which has been acting as a sort of venture capital firm in the absence of a real national energy plan, saw its budget reduced by $1 billion for the remainder of the year.
Knew it was coming but when it came true… Wonder if Boehner cries at the death of aniamls, at increased cancers, smog…
