Yesterday, I spoke on the floor of the U.S.
House to tell the truth.
The fact is, the Obama Administration's EPA
uses 'secret science' to force new rules on American businesses. These "cloak
and dagger" tactics are increasing our taxes and driving more of our hard-earned
dollars into the federal government.
This is wrong.
I have taken a tough stand against the Obama
Administration and its invasive EPA bureaucracy for runaway government
tactics.
On Monday, EPA Administrator McCarthy took
aim. McCarthy openly stated that she was out to suppress critics of Obama and
the EPA. My fear is that we have another IRS scandal in the making. I need
your help to stand up to Barack Obama and his agenda.
But, this really isn't about politics. It is
about a free society.
Americans deserve better than a government
that targets critics for disagreement, or hides behind the curtain of "secret
science" like the EPA.
Please join me and take a
stand.

 PS: I can't fight the EPA alone. I'm going
to need all the help I can get. Can I count on you to join me?

and water pollution.
McCarthy said Monday that science is the
EPA's "North Star" and has helped to reduce health risks and promote healthy
communities, The Hill reported.
"If EPA is being accused of 'secret science'
because we rely on real scientists to conduct research, and independent
scientists to peer review it, and scientists who’ve spent a lifetime studying
the science to reproduce it — then so be it," McCarthy was quoted as telling an
audience at the National Academy of Sciences.
In February, Rep. David Schweikert, R-Ariz.,
introduced legislation that would prohibit the agency from proposing or
finalizing rules without first disclosing all "scientific and technical
information" relied on to support its proposed action. [ read
