What’s New:
On Thursday, EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler announced the rewrite an Obama-era regulation known as the Waters of the United States (WOTUS) rule.
Why It Matters:
In 2014, the Obama administration instituted a burdensome regulation that told Montana farmers and ranchers how to manage their own land.
The Trump administration rewrite is about commonsense policies that protect Montana water, support Montana ag, and protect our property rights without overbearing regulations from DC bureaucrats.
What’s Next:
I applaud President Trump and his administration for rewriting the rule to ensure that Montanans are allowed to manage the land they know best.
