17 Jun 2009 “The Biggest Bureaucratic Power Grab in a Generation”

If you haven’t visited the National Center for Public Policy Research’s new Clean Water Restoration Act Information page (or even if you have), you can get a good 2 1/2 minute summary of CWRA from Senator James Inhofe (R-OK) from the video above.

Senator Inhofe starts the video with “Rural America, watch out!” and goes on to call CWRA “the biggest bureaucratic power grab in a generation.”

If you have a blog or web page yourself, please consider posting this video. Although few people have heard of this bill, Senator Inhofe is not exaggerating about its scope.

It’s important that people become educated about CWRA — the issue is that big.

P.S. Our Clean Water Restoration Act Information page provides links to addition information about CWRA from a variety of sources.

The legislation is scheduled for a vote in the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee June 18.
