McConnell is launching his attack as a disapproval resolution under the Congressional Review Act, a seldom-invoked law that allows lawmakers to repeal a regulation with a simple majority vote.Obama would certainly veto the resolution if it passes, and Republicans wouldn’t have the votes to override him. But in the meantime, Democrats facing tight reelection fights would have to vote for or against the Environmental Protection Agency’s attempt to throttle greenhouse gas emissions from future coal-burning power plants.Some of those Democrats have already been trying to distance themselves from Obama’s environmental agenda and the troubled rollout of his health care plan.
why is it not good to regulate greenhouse gasses and fossil fuels air pollution because the republican supporters make a few dollars less this is what they want to kill the EPA for the potential to kill you and your family.
“So the majority leader and his Democratic caucus now have a choice,” McConnell said. “Are they going to stand with the coal families under attack in places like Kentucky and West Virginia and Colorado, or are they going to continue to stand with the powerful left-wing special interests that want to see their jobs completely eliminated.”No Senate vote on the resolution is likely for months, a delay that would push the matter closer to the elections.Republican challenges to EPA rules under the CRA have failed to secure majority support in the Senate in recent years, and this is the first time a senator has filed such challenge to a rule that hasn’t become final yet. EPA isn’t scheduled to put out a final rule on the coal plants until September — it published the regulation in the Federal Register only last week.
the danger is not just to us but to those workers as well, the republicans want you to stand by and industry that threatened it's employee's if they didn't vote for and donate to Romney they might not have a job, that's fine if you support that type of extortion where you and your job could be next. recognize
