America's air is getting cleaner. EPA data shows that air
quality has substantially improved since the 1970s and existing EPA regulations
will continue that trend. Why, then, is the EPA trying to heap even tighter
regulations onto the backs of working families and small businesses?
Tell the EPA “Not So Fast!” We Can’t Afford Another
Regulation!
Ignoring the fact that air quality continues to improve and
that households and industries have invested billions of dollars reducing
emissions, the EPA has announced it plans to impose upon the American people
the most burdensome ozone regulations in history. The economic results of their
out-of-touch move could be devastating—lost jobs, a shrunken U.S. economy, and
possibly even higher energy costs for consumers.
Steamrolling ahead with this regulatory plan could be a
grave and costly error. The EPA knows
full well that many parts of the country are still working to meet existing
ozone standards—the strictest previously set. They also know that the new
targets they’ve proposed are so tough that some pristine parks and wildlife
areas wouldn’t be able to pass. Moving the regulatory goal posts now isn’t
fair, and it sure seems out-of-touch.
Make sure the EPA knows where you stand on this issue. Tell
them now is not the time to be changing ozone standards.
