Please, Senate Environment Committee, don’t urge ‘em
Monday, March 3rd, 2008
The state Senate Natural Resources and Environment Committee is scheduled to vote tomorrow on two of its famed “urgings,” wherein the General Assembly would vote as a whole to recommend the federal government take action on a certain issue.
The two tomorrow: A thoughtful request to the Environmental Protection Agency not to strengthen federal air-quality standards and a plea to the U.S. Congress that it amend the Endangered Species Act to exclude regions experiencing a drought.
Both urgings respectfully ask our federal overlords to do some bad, bad things.
