STOP
the EPA from bypassing
Congress on greenhouse
L gas^ regulations.
The EPA has begun writing regulations to manage greenhouse
gases under the Clean Air Act. But existing law does not allow the
EPA to consider economic impact. That is the role of Congress.
Contact Congress and tell them not to let the EPA do significant
harm to our already struggling economy. Ask them to reform the
energy policy to consider both environmental and economic impact.
