A Big Win for Climate Change Denial: Republicans to Target EPA Regulations After Taking Senate

http://democracynow.org – With their newfound control of both houses of Congress, the Republican agenda includes a rollback of environmental regulations, including President Obama’s new rules limiting carbon emissions from coal-fired power plants. We discuss this prospect with Lee Fang, a reporting fellow with The Investigative Fund at The Nation Institute, and blogger about money and politics at the the Republic Report. “This Republican majority owes its fortunes to a small number of fossil companies who were very big campaign spenders,” Fang says. “And the next Congress will see some of the most avowed climate change deniers taking control of key congressional committees in the Senate and in the House.” Watch full 2014 election coverage on Democracy Now! in our archive: http://www.democracynow.org/topics/2014_electionDemocracy Now!, is an independent global news hour that airs weekdays on 1,300+ TV and radio stations Monday through Friday.
