I knew this last year. Called my Congresman (weasel Sestak) and read his staff the riot act during the voting in the House. Fat little good it did. No matter, he is DONE in May, and this bill is going NOWHERE. Applying Federal mandates to local building codes? Every year? More governemnt intrusion. The courts will be busier than ever if this gets passed, which it will not.
The Constituion yet lives.
the Constitution yet lives?
Pray tell, when has that been proven since September 2008?
The Constituion yet lives.

I don’t think it does. I can’t think of anything significant that the court has said the Federal government can’t do. We are not a nation with a limited Federal government anymore in practice. We are a nation with an unlimited central government . . . same as all the other empires, kingships, tyrannies and failed states before us. The words are still there in the Constitution but they’ve interpreted them out of existence.
“The courts will be busier than ever if this gets passed, which it will not.”
Everything the fascists at the EPA do is subject to the Data Quality Act (DQA). Under DQA, the EPA, and other fascist bureaucracies, must prove that every line of every regulation is based on solid scientific research. Any citizen may challenge any rule written by EPA and demand the science behind the rule. In other words, millions of challenges may be filed against the EPA.
Further, courts must base their decisions on these matters using scientific and tested theories.
George Bush insisted on the DQA, laying landmines across the federal bureaucratic landscape to blow up every bureaucrat and agency.
Learn it and use it.
