POWER OF THE PURSE: U.S. HOUSE BLOCKS EPA SPENDING ON WEAPONRY USING OPENTHEBOOKS REPORT - This week, the U.S. House started voting on appropriations bills for federal agencies.
- On Thursday, Rep. Gary Palmer (R-AL) introduced an amendment to stop the EPA from using ANY funds to grow their already-huge cache of guns, bullets, and military-style equipment.
- “To me, this sounds like we’re arming a SEAL team,” Palmer told colleagues. “The difference is a SEAL team can explain why they need these things; the EPA cannot!”
- The amendment passed along with the EPA budget. This is an example of lawmakers using our research to make real-world changes.

“Why Does the IRS Need Guns?” |
