Rep. Loudermilk: SCOTUS Decision Overturns Unnecessary Regulations on America’s Energy Sector

Washington, June 29, 2015
Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) has issued the following statement on the Supreme Court’s decision on Michigan v. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), a legal challenge to the EPA’s damaging 2011 regulations that have closed power plants and destroyed jobs.

“For far too long, the Obama Administration has been using the EPA to bypass the Constitutional role of Congress as the sole lawmaker for the Federal Government. However, the Supreme Court today ruled against the EPA and their draconian regulations that are killing our economy. While the fight against big government bureaucrats is not over, this will slow down their progress of killing US jobs.”
