Obama Revives Ozone Regulation He Once Opposed for Being 'Too Severe a Burden' on Economy
Breitbart News ^ | 8 Dec 2014 | Marita Noon

Posted on 12/10/2014 4:18:59 PM PST by george76

Late on Thanksgiving eve, with no one paying attention, the Obama administration released its regulatory road map of thousands of regulations for 2015.

Within the bundle of more than 3,000 regulations lies a rule on ozone that President Obama himself in 2011 “put on ice” in effort to reduce “regulatory burdens and regulatory uncertainty, particularly as our economy continues to recover.” Regarding the 2011 decision that shocked environmental groups, the New York Times recently stated: “At the time, Mr. Obama said the regulation would impose too severe a burden on industry and local governments at a time of economic distress.”

So why is the rule back?

First, Obama isn’t facing an election.

...

Now the administration targets oil-and-gas development and manufacturing through the just-announced 626-page ozone regulation that require states to dramatically reduce ozone emissions from the current 75 parts-per=-billion (ppb) to a range of 65 to 70ppb. Environmental groups want a 60ppb standard, which may be the final rule. While a 5-15ppb reduction doesn’t sound like much, many areas of the U.S. already do not comply, including most of California, with the 75ppb level. The new regulations will mean that, depending on the final rule, 76 to 96 percent of the country—including some national parks where the natural background levels reach 65 to 67ppb—will be out of compliance.

Thanks, George, for disseminating this.

I don't think your average American has any idea how BAD it's going to get during the next two years.

The Kenyan-born Muslim fascist wants to leave office with America in flames.

Might as well get it over with now. No one is going to stop Obama and Jarrett from doing what they want. Waiting for the obligatory “grab the guns and head to DC” nonsense. Yeah, right! :rolleyes:

Don't worry.

The Republicans will rise up and defund this illegal bureaucratic decree.

Oh. Yeah.

Nevermind.

This is why the nation put the Republicans back into the majority.

Now its time for Congress to grow a spine and start walking upright.

The main problem with not stopping Obama is the Repubs are catching on
and are beginning to use the same tactic, of doing WTF they want.

They will not listen to Americans anymore, period. And I'm not sure America has
the courage at this time to recall those like Boehner and end this fiasco.

The best we can pray for now is to elect a solid conservative POTUS who isn't
swayed or intimidated by the alcoholics in DC running the place like the Mob.

Bringing the rule of law back to DC would send most of these ingrates into
fits of uncontrollable crying and fear. Squawking like little girls being
chased by a pit bull. Boo-freaking-ho...

Look at the business and NGO constituents behind the politicians. They play both political parties. Learn all that you can, and analyze their strategies. If you continue to fail to do this, you will continue to lose.
