I will fight every attempt the EPA makes to impose a cap and tax scheme on our economy.
And I will stop efforts of an over-reaching Federal government wanting to interfere with Pennsylvania's development of its Marcellus Shale resource. Washington does not always know better, and Pennsylvania is more than able to monitor its own businesses without interference from an agenda-driven EPA.
