Oct. 18, 2017: Congressional Record publishes “NOTICE OF INTENT TO OBJECT TO PROCEEDING”

Volume 163, No. 168 covering the 1st Session of the 115th Congress (2017 - 2018) was published by the Congressional Record.

The Congressional Record is a unique source of public documentation. It started in 1873, documenting nearly all the major and minor policies being discussed and debated.

“NOTICE OF INTENT TO OBJECT TO PROCEEDING” mentioning the Environmental Protection Agency was published in the Senate section on pages S6590 on Oct. 18, 2017.

More than half of the Agency's employees are engineers, scientists and protection specialists. The Climate Reality Project, a global climate activist organization, accused Agency leadership in the last five years of undermining its main mission.

The publication is reproduced in full below:
