WASHINGTON D.C. – Following President Barack Obama’s veto of two congressional resolutions that sought to mitigate the disastrous impact of the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) regulations restricting carbon dioxide emissions from new and existing power plants, Republican Governors Mike Pence of Indiana, Mary Fallin of Oklahoma, and Pete Ricketts of Nebraska released the following statement:
“As governors, we are disappointed that President Obama insists on imposing burdensome regulations that threaten jobs, jeopardize electricity reliability, and drive up energy costs for millions of Americans in our states and across the country. Not only has the Obama Administration and the EPA repeatedly sought to operate beyond the scope of its rightful authority, but the president continues to reject opportunities to partner with states to advance a coherent, fact-driven energy policy. Unfortunately, the president’s veto is yet another example of his unwillingness to take into consideration the will of the people expressed through their elected representatives.”

Glad to be a part of the ribbon cutting for a new neighborhood in Hudson yesterday.
With a new 60-day permitting process for housing, we’ve taken meaningful steps to tackle our housing shortage and keep New Hampshire growing.
Less red tape, more ribbon cuttings! https://t.co/x254Xw8SXD
.@SpanbergerforVA’s track record in Washington says it all: she wants to destroy American Energy Independence.
Abigail Spanberger’s energy plan is a roadmap to ruin. Banning gas cars. Killing jobs. Crushing families under a radical progressive agenda.
