Republicans move to repeal lead limits imposed by Biden-era rules US government would be prohibited from ever mandating lead pipe replacement or lowering lead limits in water

Trump and the GOP are trying to repeal a Biden admin rule that requires lead water pipes to be replaced.

Tens of millions of people, including children, would continue to have contaminated drinking water if the rules are revoked.

So the GOP is the party of lead poisoning now?

If you wanted to decrease the cost of homes, one thing you wouldn’t do is put a flat tariff on your main source of timber.

The thing to understand about Trump is like in his first term, he doesn’t want to govern. He doesn’t want to learn. He wants to campaign and look good.

Republicans know this. So there are battles going on right now to take control of the actual process of governing.
