U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, released the following statement in response to President Obama's announced EPA regulations:
"The President's lawless and radical attempt to destabilize the Nation's energy system is flatly unconstitutional and--unless it is invalidated by Congress, struck down by the courts, or rescinded by the next Administration--will cause Americans' electricity costs to skyrocket at a time when we can least afford it. I urge leaders of both parties, including Democrats who represent communities that will be devastated by this reckless policy, to stand up against this Administration's dangerous agenda of economic decline."
