Between this & the proposed budget/personnel budget cuts just sent to the EPA, the Waaahmbulances must be lined up 3 deep in front of EPA buildings.

Trump Proposes EPA Budget Cuts, Targets Climate, Clean Water Programs
http://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-epa-environmental-protection-agency-environment-water-climate-563148

Overall budget cut 25% & staffing by 20% ....would cut deeply into programs like climate protection, environmental justice and enforcement.

What the heck is “environmental justice” ? Per the EPA website, it is:

Environmental justice is the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race, color, national origin, or income, with respect to the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies.

EPA has this goal for all communities and persons across this nation. It will be achieved when everyone enjoys:

the same degree of protection from environmental and health hazards, and
equal access to the decision-making process to have a healthy environment in which to live, learn, and work.

“Overall budget cut 25% & staffing by 20% ...”

Hopefully that’s just a start and that’ll be all that’s left of them in 3 or 4 years, preferably less.

Oh sure when a farm or mine or railway is exactly like an office, which it’ll never be but the busybodies have such spendy fun pretending to make it so. Where is the freedom of people to choose what dangers to dare?
