Volume 165, No. 102 covering the 1st Session of the 116th Congress (2019 - 2020) 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.

“BUDGETARY EFFECTS OF PAYGO LEGISLATION” mentioning the Environmental Protection Agency was published in the House of Representatives section on pages H4768-H4769 on June 18, 2019.

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.
