Rep. Wagner statement on EPA power grab

WASHINGTON, D.C. – In reaction to the White House’s sweeping regulation, the EPA’s final “waters of the United States” rule, Congresswoman Ann Wagner issued following statement.

“In true bureaucratic fashion, the Environmental Protection Agency and Obama Administration just created more problems than solutions for hardworking farmers across our country. Earlier this month the House passed legislation preventing implementation of this rule. I urge the Senate to take it up with haste, and stop this damaging power grab that threatens the economy and Americans’ personal freedom,” Rep. Wagner said.
