The Obama administration is looking forward to a host of new environmental regulations that go far beyond the president's plans to issue new standards for greenhouse gas emissions from new and existing power plants.
The new regulations, previewed in the administration's spring regulatory roadmap released this week, cover everything from pollution runoff from military ships to landfill methane emissions, and in some cases will be issued long after called for under the law.
This September, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) plans to propose rules for greenhouse gas emissions from new power plants, and next June will issue draft rules for existing facilities.
Those dates match up with the timeline President Obama has given for the new regulations, which supporters have cheered as a major step in confronting climate change.
Though this tactic isn't new, it is surely unconstitutional and these economy killing regulations are extremely worrisome. Obama is desperate for a "win" to promote his personal legacy, Constitution and individual liberty be damned!
Tell Congress to uphold and enforce the Constitution. That is, after all, what they were elected to do! And while they're at it, they need to force this President to do the same!
