Westerman Comments on Waters of the United States Regulatory Overreach Protection Act

Congressman Bruce Westerman (R-Hot Springs) issued the following statement on H.R. 594, the Waters of the United States Regulatory Overreach Protection Act:

"It is time the executive branch of the federal government begins to respect the water rights of state and local governments, as well as private entities, and this bill is a step in that direction. This would prevent the EPA from broadening the Clean Water Act and would protect Americans from executive overreach. Those of us supporting Rep. Gosar's legislation are listening to our constituents and standing up to radical special interests. We hope the president would do the same, though his track record speaks for itself."
