I am a conservationist, and nature lover, and don't want NEEDLESS regulations that don't do anything positive for the environment, but just gum up businesses, kill jobs, and the economy. I also hunt, and fish, and have an MBA from a Ivy League university. Much of the license fees I pay my state to hunt, and fish goes to environmental, and conservation causes.

67 Republicans voted yea
206 Democrats voted yea

Nixon might have been a crook, but he had a lot of great ideas. Universal health care for example. These days Republicans can't forget that fast enough. It's so sad how far the Republicans have fallen...

What stops all you liberals who want universal healthcare from doing your own version for you, the poor and the illegals?

Oh, that's right, you want my money for it.

Yes that's why we support strict environmental regulations.

Not really, mostly isolated. Now we have the Green Blob robbing the country with worthless green blob laws.

It was Nixon's proposal. But maybe you weren't around in those days.

FYI, he may have been a lot of things, but liberal wasn't one of them...

Just like the people in charge who came and got my money for the war in Iraq? Why didn't they pay for it without me because I sure did not want it?

Unfortunately, that isn't how it works. Like it or not, we are all in this together; we don't get to pick and choose where our $ go
