YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe congressional Republicans are gutting whatever environmental regulations Obama put into place. Ana Kasparian, John Iadarola, and Michael Shure, the hosts of The Young Turks, tell you what regulations they're gutting. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“(WASHINGTON) — The Republican-controlled House voted on Friday to overturn an Obama administration rule that sought to reduce harmful methane emissions into the environment, part of the Democratic president's campaign to combat climate change.
Lawmakers voted 221-191 to roll back the Interior Department rule that had clamped down on oil companies that burn off natural gas during drilling operations on public lands. Three Democrats voted in favor of repealing the rule, which was finalized in November, while 11 Republicans opposed repeal.
Republicans argued that the rule is causing job losses in energy-dependent states across the West and is undercutting domestic energy production. The measure now goes to the Senate.
The House vote followed action in the Senate earlier Friday ending an Obama-era regulation that requires oil and gas companies to disclose payments to foreign governments for mining and drilling.”
