Environment
The Environment and Public Works (EPW) Committee has jurisdiction over a host of issues important to South Dakotans. It oversees key infrastructure projects and provides oversight to two agencies known for overstepping their regulatory boundaries: the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S Army Corps of Engineers. As a member of the EPW committee and Chairman of the Subcommittee Superfund, Waste Management and Regulatory Oversight, I will fight to keep over regulation of these agencies in check and promote a fact-based energy and infrastructure policy that encourages economic growth.
