Letter of Support: Reining In EPA and Army Corps “Wetlands” Regulators

In recent years, however, the EPA and the Army Corps have attempted to expand their jurisdiction to impose stringent new regulations on isolated wetlands, ephemeral streams, farm runoff and drainage, and other “waters” in the U.S. that are arguably not at all connected to navigable waters nor interstate commerce. A recent guidance document, for example, tries to circumvent both Congress and multiple Supreme Court rulings on wetlands regulation.

September 26, 2011 J

Dear Congressman Ribble,

On behalf of more than 1.8 million Americans for Prosperity activists in all 50 states, I write in support of your proposal to reinvigorate the American economy.

Your bill would halt damaging regulatory actions until unemployment falls below 7.7 percent.

Three Kentuckians join forces to stop America from choking on red tape.

By PHIL KERPEN

As the country teeters on the edge of recession, two competing visions of government’s role in the economy are being offered in Washington. President Obama again proposes big government programs and Keynesian stimulus. House Republicans have a different idea.

In the belief that government regulation is blocking job creation, House GOP leaders aim not only to repeal specific regulations, but also to reform the rule-making system. Their key reform bill is the Regulations from the Executive In Need of Scrutiny Act, or REINS Act. It comes at a crucial time.

Letter of Support: Sen. DeMint’s Bill to Stop the NLRB’s “Quickie” Elections, S. 1425

Dear Senator DeMint,

On behalf of more than 1.7 million Americans for Prosperity activists in all 50 states, I applaud your recent introduction of S. 1425, the Fair Representation in Elections Act.

July 25, 2011 J

Dear Senator Wicker and Representative Rokita,

On behalf of more than 1.7 million Americans for Prosperity activists in all 50 states, I applaud your recent introduction of the TSA Efficiency and Flexibility Act (S. 1353/H.R. 2507), to add Transportation Security Administration (TSA) workers to the list of federal employees statutorily prohibited from collective bargaining, while taking care to ensure their employment rights are duly protected by other, more effective means.
