The Nine Most Terrifying Words
Please take a minute to read the message below. Does this concern
you? Do you think it's just politics as usual and nothing to worry
about? Will you take a few minutes and
contact the EPA? If we don't take a stand now, who will? This may be our only
chance to end this...
"IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUESTED"
Two days before the 4th of July, as Americans celebrated their
independence, the EPA took the
unprecedented step of overriding several states' constitutions, and individual
property rights by granting itself the authority to "garnish
non-Federal wages to collect delinquent non-tax debts owed the United States
without first
obtaining a court order."
If not overturned by public outcry, this regulation becomes the law of the
land, without further notice on September 2, 2014. Americans have
until August 1, 2014 to respond to the EPA to have the rule
withdrawn:
- Email: jones.anita@epa.gov
- Fax: (202) 565-2585
- Mail: OCFO-2014-0001; FRL-9910-14-OCFO FPPS c/o Anita Jones, OCFO/OFM/FPPS, Mailcode 2733R, Environmental Protection Agency, 1300 Pennsylvania avenue NW., Washington, DC 20460

What this means: The EPA and other Federal
agencies often levy fines for non-compliance with regulations. These fines may
be are overturned or ruled unfair as in the case of Chantell and Michael Sackett
of CO. The EPA fined them $75,000 per day for failing to fill in a wetland, even
though engineers claimed there was no wetland on their property. After four
years of fighting, that case was partially overturned in the Supreme Court.
Under these new regulations, the EPA can
simply garnish their wages leaving the couple bankrupt within months. In
short, it would be impossible to fight the agency regardless of how invasive
their regulations.
If allowed to stand, the EPA can deem you in
violation of a rule they create, then garnish your wages for failure to comply,
all without court approval.
The EPA claims that it does not consider this
a controversial rule and it is not considered "a significant regulatory action."
It therefore is not "subject to review" for whether or not:
- its benefits justify its costs nor that;
- it imposes the least burden on society.
