Why only one year?
Senate won’t hear it, Obama will veto.
The INSANE Greens want us back to bear skins. Oh wait, PETA won’t let us to do that either!
Finally! Some common sense from our Goobermint!
EPA is going to ban dust. EPA is going to declare rainfall a pollutant.
No rain, no dust. Ergo, no more mud by government fiat? I’m sure New Englanders will be happy to learn of this.
As others have noted, it’s only for one year. That’s on the House.
And it isn’t a law yet. That’s on the Senate.
Even if it got through the Senate, Obama would veto it.
Well, your sport and all those that kick up dust are effected, because the EPA is going after cities like Phoenix. There is a message on the Phoenix Parks and Recreation line that cautions about dust. It states not to ride on vacant lots or even parking on them, or anyplace that would cause dust, because they could lose federal funds. Now, I’m thinking, “Hey! It’s Phoenix. It’s a dust city. They have freakin’ dust storms caused by nature.” The EPA needs to be eliminated.
The Farm Dust Regulation Prevention Act, H.R. 1633
Who could imagine the Republic would descend to the point where it needs to write laws about not dust, but the prevention of laws about dust. Next the EPA will attempt to ban dust bunnies, cornflake dust, and cat dander.
WOW!
Where I grew up the farmers always burned off corn stubble after the harvest. Lots o smoke you can bet. I wonder if they still do that. Barbaroo Boxer’s head would assplode if she knew that.
Just like in Scanners, bwahahahahaha.
Just imagine how many children wouldn’t have to go to bed hungry every night if the Republicans would just defund the EPA. That money could buy a lot of food for the hungry kids.
IMO, there’s more nusiance dust kicked up by travel on dirt roads than anything other than cultivation and harvest. All things being equal, I’ll bet the roads send up far more particulates over time. If so, what’re they going to do? Ban road travel?
Hey Fubo!
The EPA needs killin.
What they need to do is make a law that says that all regulations made by the EPA has to have Congressional approval.
DT racing is only one of a great many business/sports that would have been effected ! A lot of “small businesses” (and that’s most farmers, BTW), even rural municipalities with dirt roads would have been impacted. Hosts of other small businesses from landscapers, to small surface mines, to sawyards come readily to mind.
Worse, implementation of this measure could/would have been erratic being determined solely at the discretion of the EPA - or rather - its Director ! And that, I suspect, is the reason there was so much bi-partisan support !
Electees on both sides of the aisle are well aware of the Obama Administration’s record for appointing radicals, former terrorists, criminals, even avowed anti-american socialists to regulatory positions of power whence they’ve created economic chaos. One, Cass Sunstein, is a ticking bomb that, while presently out of the limelight, is working “under the radar” on a number of economic and social issues important to our society. >PS

Once upon a time I would assume that EPA could not regulate that which it had not been given the authority of congress to regulate. These days the EPA and Other departments literally are a congress in and of themselves. A congress of one official elected by communist president no less. This has just got to stop. Congress needs to reign them in and take back its power.
What scares me is that 150 idiots WANT farm dust regulated. We’re farmers and I can tell ya, you can’t farm without kickin’ up dust. Just how do those jerks think we’re going to be able to eat if this regulation came to pass? Do they think food grows in grocery stores? Where do they expect our food to come from? We’re already feeding a large part of the rest of the world since they don’t seem to be able to feed themselves.
I see the Congressional Progressive Caucus members all voted against this bill barring the regulation, or didn’t vote on it at all. We have simply GOT to get the commies out of DC!
