I’ve been telling you for months about our REINS Act, which has been introduced in the House and Senate.
As you recall, the REINS Act requires any proposed federal regulation costing more than $100 million to be voted on by Congress and signed by the President before it can take effect.
The prospect of further restoring Congress as the only constitutionally-authorized lawmaking body, and making regulations transparent and accountable, has whipped Gang Green into a frothing rage.
Well, I’ve just received word from Speaker Boehner’s office he intends to begin moving the REINS Act this month.
That means you and I must get active, because Barack Obama is going to pull every stunt and twist every arm to prevent a vote in the House.
You see, a new poll released this morning by the internationally reputable Tarrance Group finds overwhelming majorities of voters agree with you and me about the need for our REINS Act and 65 percent support the REINS Act.
Not many bills can boast they have the support of 65 percent of voters.
The poll finds:
> Three quarters (74%) of voters throughout the country believe that businesses and consumers are over-regulated.”
> More than two thirds (70%) believe increasing the number of regulations on American businesses will result in more jobs moving overseas.”
> A majority (56%) agrees that “more government intervention and regulation to the process of overseeing business means you have less accountability because everyone assumes someone else is in charge”, while only 38% agree more that additional regulation leads to more accountability because of the increased number involved in oversight.”
> One of the highest points of agreement in the survey is fact that 73% concur that “every time the federal government mandates a new regulation on America’s large and small business, the prices of American made good and services like gasoline and food go up.”
> Voters do not want a regulatory process that takes away legislative duties reserved for Congress…This strong support for Congressional involvement is consistent across partisan groups, including among Democrats (67%), Republicans (65%) and Independents (64%).”
> Voters are simply unaware that Congress is not in a lead position with regard to regulation, as a majority say that Congress (52%) creates regulations.
And most importantly:
> (T)here is a strong desire for checks and balances in creating regulations, as two thirds (65%) favor requiring regulations be approved by Congress and the President before they are enforced.
65 percent of voters agree with American Tradition Partnership.
But that just means Gang Green will fight even harder to stop us.
I need you to go here and chip in $10 to help us mount our fight to get a recorded vote on the REINS Act.
Any gift in any amount will be appreciated and put to wise use.
Speaker Boehner says he will begin the process this month.
You and I must be ready to fight.
Go here right to chip in $10 to help.
65 percent of voters support the REINS Act.
I hope I have your support as well.
