YouTube Description
as posted by the channelDecember 10, 2014
The government funding bill that we’re going to be taking up tomorrow actually reduces the IRS’s budget by more than $340 million. It cuts the EPA’s staffing levels to a point lower than they were going back to the 1980s. It does a number of other important things. It actually stops the EPA from trying to regulate lead, something that’s led to a run on ammunition all across the country. It’s hard to even find ammo at a Wal-Mart because of the threat of the EPA regulating lead in firearm ammunition. And so we blocked the EPA from doing that.
There are a number of other provisions that are in but something else that is ultimately a component of this legislation is that it finally sets up a battle in just a few weeks with the president on immigration and his attempt at illegal action. When we have a Republican Senate, we can actually move legislation through the process that puts a check on this president and the things he’s trying to do that are illegal.
