An entire year of hearings and effort down the drain. Thanks, Speaker Boehner.
Sources tell JunkScience.com that, with the possible exception of the Boiler MACT issue, no riders to control or rollback EPA overregulation will be attached to appropriations legislation that will be moving through Congress.
Apparently, Speaker Boehner wants to finish the legislation without a fight so that House Members can go home for Christmas.
Very sad.
Or perhaps he’s just a realist? Couldn’t get enough votes? Couldn’t override a veto? I think nothing happens, or at least nothing good, until a scrappy Republican gets in the White House or at least, scrappy R’s take over the senate. If that doesn’t happen, it’s Katy bar the door.
Boehner never should have been made Speaker to begin with; he caves or gets outfoxed. Regardless the people end up losing.
