One of so many departments of the Fed that needs desperately to be defunded, and extinct. Rife with Leftist abuse.
Keep fighting, Texas. You’re practically the last bastion of American spirit we have.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
Through various federal agencies the communists in our goverment, elected and civil servants keep trying to turn our country into ussr, moa’s dream, hitler’s agenda and the list goes on. We must stay vigilant and sever these “public servants” from their jobs, either individually or defunding.
Control of private property for the comon good, as defined by the government, is one of the primary tenets of fascism.
The EPA is, quite simply, a vile fascist organization operating outside the bounds of Constitutional restraint. The EPA should not only be disbanded, it’s leadership needs to brought before a court of law on charges of treason. And the former heads of the EPA in the Clinton administration, need to dragged out of their homes and similarly charged.
Our soon to be new Congress needs to defund and disband the EPA.
These folks in the Administration want to be dictators.

Do not believe it. Rockefeller and a couple other Dems made up a bill to stop the EPA solely as a pre-election fig leaf. It is DOA in committee. My own Jim Webb participated in this charade, Warner sat on his butt. Not sure which is worse. doing nothing to stop the tyranny of the EPA or pretending to do something.
I hope Texas sues the EPA into the very fires of Hell!!!
I hope we can dismantle the EPA after we win in November.
In 3 weeks we flush
Texas has a large enough economy, has the resources, and has the power, to just tell the Federal Government/EPA where to stick their regulations. If they would do that - what could the Feds really do? Declare war on Texas? Not likely.
But does Texas really have the backbone to stand up?

Exactly!
We should make these traitors fear for the destruction of their sham agency and charges brought up against it so badly that they quit there jobs and no one will want to fill the empty positions!
*But does Texas really have the backbone to stand up?*
If they do, I hope all the other states will take the cue and tell them to shut up and back off!
We are NOT following your illegal “laws” against exhaling anymore
Just ignore their illegal bans, then go ahead and build anyway. If they send feds in, arrest them with Texas Rangers and, if needed, Texas National Guardsmen.
The EPA needs to be totally dismantled.
They solved some basic problems.
Now they are nit-picking & finding obscure items to hammer the entire country with.
A river on fire in Ny state from illegal dumping isn’t the same as a source of irrigation for Western ranchers.
What you are asking about Texas or any other state is "Do the political leaders have the backbone?" I assure you that the majority of Texans do and if the leaders don't we will replace them at first opportunity.
If Texas refuses to go along with the EPA the Federal Government will probably retaliate against the companies individually. What will or can Texas government do? They could allow them to continue to operate but the fed will probably continue to add on fines and penalties and then take it all to court. You know that sooner or later the fed will win in some liberal court. How would such a matter fare in the SCUSA? I don't know.
This would all take so long to play out it is hard to know what the mood of the country will be at the time.
