Far-right Republicans just launched yet another congressional assault on the Center for Biological Diversity.

This new U.S. House Committee on Natural Resources "investigation" — like the first — is a fraudulent abuse of power.

Just last year, the EPA strengthened its own soot standard that would protect public health and clean air for millions of Americans. But now, President Trump’s EPA is siding with corporate polluters, trying to get rid of this vital rule.

Neo-liberalism is build on myths. One such myth is that their laissez-faire and "free market" policies will reduce bureaucracy.
"The idea that the market is somehow opposed to and independent of government has been used at least since the 19th century to justify laissez-faire economic policies, but such policies never actually have the effect of lessening the role of government. In late 19th century England, for instance, an increasingly liberal society did not lead to a reduction of state bureaucracy but the opposite: an endlessly mushrooming array of legal clerks, registrars, inspectors, notaries, and police officials."

Yesterday’s #OilSpill in #VenturaCounty has us asking, how many more spills in CA will it take before we fully commit to reining in this industry?

Officials say about 420 gallons of oil spilled into a tributary of Sisar Creek.

We will continue to fight this industry. Learn more ➡️ bit.ly/43jNMst

The so-called #FixOurForestsAct would lead to more calamitous clearcuts, more habitat-fragmenting roads, and worse water quality.

The bill has already passed in the House and has just received a Senate committee vote.
