The EPA is justifying the rules by saying it's part of its mandate to enforce the Clean Water Act.

How dare the EPA decide what it's mandate is? Federal bureaucracies are supposedly in business to work the will of the voters through their elected representatives, not to decide their own powers or act on their own decisions. The GOP has had how many Congressional majorities now to curb the EPA since 1972?

But Reps. Lamar Smith (R-Texas) and Chris Stewart (R-Utah)...want the agency to slow down and get other opinions.

The best the GOP can do is beg the EPA "to slow down and get other opinions". Is there no one with enough fortitude to call for the EPA to either drastically reduce it's size, ambition and lust for power or face abolition? Does the EPA have incriminating pictures of every member of Congress?
