You have to appreciate what Senator Roberts is saying, and thank him for saying it. But on the other hand here is a guy who served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1980 to 1996, and has served in the Senate since 1997. So whatever actions EPA takes it does so because politicians like Roberts have voted to grant that authority to EPA and have annually voted to fund the agency to undertake those actions. Grilling agency heads is nice but just spewing words will bring no change. Maybe that's why he's refusing to debate his opponent in the Republican primary.
Issues of concern to people who live in the west: property rights, water rights, endangered species, livestock grazing, energy production, wilderness and western agriculture. Plus a few items on western history, western literature and the sport of rodeo... Frank DuBois served as the NM Secretary of Agriculture from 1988 to 2003. DuBois is a former legislative assistant to a U.S. Senator, a Deputy Assistant Secretary of Interior, and is the founder of the DuBois Rodeo Scholarship.
