Call you congressman and ask the simple question: WHY no new refineries?

WHY no new refineries?

Bill Clinton and the nature conservancy, the sierra club and a host of other NGOs can tell you why.

The clinton executive order on environmental justice gave the environmentalists the legal status to sue the government and land owners wanting to build power plants and refineries, even when no harm to them or to anyone could be demonstrated.

Call congress and ask them to revoke that EO, and you will see progress on the refineries.

EPA rules toughened under a Clinton Executive Order and the RATs stalling in the Congress.
