Issues: Science Government Budget and Spending Environment

The Environmental Protection Agency has had their budget increased by 38% over the last two years, when everyone else is tightening their belts. "The EPA has gotten outside the lines of the Constitution. They are legislating by rule making. They are creating regulations that they have no Congressional authority to make."
"The EPA, when run by scientists, and is about clean air and clean water, is a good agency. But we are way past this point. It appears the EPA is being run by activists, not scientists." Republicans and Democrats support GT in the effort to reign in the EPA.
