This from Cong. Michael Burgess:

Why does EPA want to takeover Texas' permit process? "It's odd. Very odd. The Texas rules, you see, appear to work."

TX has reduced ozone emissions by 22% and NOx by 46%. Pretty good, especially when compared with national rate of reductions - 8% ozone, 27% NOx.

Better still, Texas has achieved these reductions while growing economically and maintaining one of the nation's lowest unemployment rates.
