The thing that was making America great was apparently lead.
Today EPA chief Lee Zeldin announced that the agency is rolling back 31 regulations.
He's taking aim at mercury, soot, and toxic pollution restrictions, and federal protection of wetlands.
The EPA will also rewrite rules limiting pollution from fossil-fuel plants and cars, and more.

This is a $67 billion gift to ultra-wealthy tax cheats. Nothing unites Republicans like helping the ultra-wealthy get away with breaking the law and cheating on their taxes.

The Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit is the largest tax cut for child care on the books today. It saves parents thousands of dollars per year. Republicans have plans to eliminate it.

They want to repeal the IRA’s energy tax credits, which are what lowers carbon emissions and invests in clean energy. At a time when energy production in America is booming and clean energy is taking off, Republicans want to surrender the clean energy industry to China and raise your energy bills.
