H.R.861 - To terminate the Environmental Protection Agency

This is the actual title of the bill! They aren't even trying to hide their anti-science goals anymore!

What Trump's House and Senate have done so far:

• Roll back stream protection rules, giving mining corporations a full go-ahead to release heavy-metals into waterways (Already approved by House, Senate - awaiting Trump's signature)

• Roll back resource-extraction rules, allowing mining companies to hide transactions with foreign governments (Already approved by House, Senate - awaiting Trump's signature)

• Roll back methane flaring rules, allowing oil and gas companies to burn and vent methane into the environment instead of capturing it (Awaiting Senate approval)

• Roll back public land bills, removing BLM and Forest Service law enforcement from land, allowing for drilling in national parks! (Going to House this week)

It is clear that Trump's House and Senate DO NOT care about the environment! We need to show that someone does!
