WASHINGTON, D.C. -
Senator Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) released the following statement about President Obama's decision to withdraw the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) proposed ozone standards.
"The White House's decision to withdraw the EPA's proposed ozone standards has taken a huge regulatory burden off the table for small businesses and job creators seeking to expand and hire new workers" Sen. Toomey said.
"As I travel across Pennsylvania, I consistently hear from job creators expressing concerns about the EPA's regulatory overreach. That is why I have introduced legislation that will require the EPA to consider the jobs impact of any new regulations. With the nation's unemployment rate near double digits, this latest announcement from the White House is encouraging, and I hope the administration will continue pursuing common sense regulatory reform."
