Sarah Steelman: “I Would Defund EPA”

On a Kansas City radio show, Sarah Steelman suggested that she would defund the Environmental Protection Agency, signed into law by that leftwing hippie Richard Nixon, if given the chance. 

Steelman told KCMO’s Greg Knapp that she would defund the EPA to avoid new regulations:

“I would defund EPA. I would cut those…I would cut their budget so they could no longer do those things.”

Maybe Steelman would like it more if the United States took a more laissez-faire approach to regulating pollution like China. Or we could just go back to the early years of the EPA before clean air and water laws had made a significant impact.
