The EPA’s latest rule on defining 'waters of the United States' is a statement of federal overreach that ignores states’ authority to regulate intrastate water quality and the Clean Water Act’s statutory mandate for cooperative federalism, in turn, although we recognize EPA’s attempt at clarifying through a roster of exemptions, its rule ignores the voices of nearly all in American agriculture who have long been seeking clarity on this issue, especially regarding the debate over what is and is not a navigable water. – Ted McKinney	Found on FOX News 1 year ago
The fact that businesses are still dealing with COVID-19 related penalties and fines is infuriating, livelihoods are on the line.

If we suspect the numbers are true and we get a large number of our members who stand firm on their beliefs that this is an overreach, and they're not going to supply the information in the portal or submit to testing, then it's safe to say the city of Chicago will have a police force at 50 % or less for this weekend coming up, that is not because of the FOP, that is 100 % because of the mayor's unwillingness to budge from her hard line. So whatever happens because of the manpower issue, that falls at the mayor's doorstep. – John Catanzara	Found on CNN 2 years ago

President Biden’s vaccine mandate is a cheap, unconstitutional overreach of governance and we will not stand by while it happens. – Dan Crenshaw	Found on FOX News 2 years ago

Crane	added by Normando 3 years ago
