The Environmental Protection Agency was created in 1970 to address legitimate concerns regarding pollution and contaminants that were potentially dangerous and needed to be managed.
Since then, however, it has become a rogue federal agency of some 18,000 employees issuing unconstitutional mandates and living off of huge, unreasonable fines against businesses and individuals that it targets, and that do not have the means to fight the out-of-control behemoth. The EPA levied a fine against the Wal-Mart Corporation of $110 million for the improper disposal of pesticide products returned to their stores, and the list goes on.
Another story in the news deals with a 77-year old Montana resident who simply wanted to provide watering holes on his property for his horses and to protect his property from fire. The EPA instead has decided to make an example of the senior citizen and to completely destroy his life.

Drain the Swamp and get rid of the Environmental Agency. Government Overreach.
Let’s see if I understand this. This gentleman, an American citizen is in jail for. Holding ponds on his own property. The guy in charge of the EPA is guilty of treason against his country and he is walking around free?
This is why the EPA should be done away with or at least started anew.
How tragic and wrong.
I hope Trump will be able to do something about this .
BS
Mostly idiots earning too much money and doing harm to people’s rights.
The EPA and the IRS both need to go! They’re both rogue agencies! T.A.
Another one for President Trump to reverse. This is ridiculous
Screw the EPA
