I believe our environment should be protected. As the Chairman
of the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee I believe
scientifically based, well thought-out environmental regulations
can provide benefits to the American people. However, too
many times current environmental regulations are not based
on science. As a result, they usually do harm and put undue restrictions upon the freedoms
of many Americans.
Additionally, poorly designed environmental regulations have
been a large contributor to the energy problems we now face.
If we rethink environmental regulation, we could be in a better
position in the future and find ourselves in a place where
we can have far greater environmental protection, more reliable
and diverse energy sources and a strong economy. The political
agenda of extremists must not dictate our efforts to provide
common sense protections that are based on science.
