Coal Residuals Reuse and Management Act

Floor Speech

Mr. HULTGREN. I rise in support of this commonsense bill that is good for jobs and the economy. I thank my good friend Congressman Shimkus for his very important work on this bill.

What we're confronting here today is another classic example of EPA's regulatory overreach threatening jobs and livelihoods across the country. This is also an issue that concerns my constituents, as thousands of jobs are in industries using coal combustion residuals. But the jobs impact of this legislation is not limited to my district. It's nationwide.

I urge my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to support this pro-growth, pro-jobs bill.
