Ep: 066 - REJECTED!

ENVIRONMENTALLY SPEAKING

We got a good news show for you this week! We talk about how the Senate rejected an amendment that would speed approval for polluting projects. Had this passed it would make it easier for polluting projects to move quickly, to sort of skip the line pass the red tape and the environmental considerations.

Senator Joe Manchin has tried to attach legislation to the National Defense Authorization Act that would weaken neighbors ability to review and, and weigh in on projects. Why is this important? Listen to our “Open Meeting Act episode” http://bit.ly/3ZJcPBX

Question: Why try to be “Sneaky” about it and put it in another Bill? Why not just request to amend NEPA?

Bonus Question: What does NEPA stand for?

It’s good that this was REJECTED!
