These actions by the EPA and Obama administration will likely result in devastating costs to the American people including increased energy and transportation costs as well as the loss of many jobs in vital industries such as steel and oil. It could only strengthen offshore competition and weaken our already weak economy.

Also, with all of the recent revelations from the scientific community debunking claims related to global warming, it’s just foolish for Obama to burden America with additional economic responsibility in the pursuit of imaginary environmental improvements.
