The Trump Administration announced today that it will repeal the Waters of the United States (WOTUS) rule established by the Obama Administration. Congressman Doug Collins (R-Ga.) issued the following statement in response:
"The illogical and overreaching Waters of the United States rule would increase the regulatory burden on northeast Georgia farmers, ranchers, and small businesses.
"It's a prime example of bureaucracy run amok, and I applaud President Trump and the EPA for moving to rescind the WOTUS regulation and investing in policies that actually serve our communities and steward their natural resources."
