Barbara Boxer: “The last chart is frightening. EPA Eases Rules on PCB-Tainted Properties. These are the most polluted, dangerous…”

“The last chart is frightening. EPA Eases Rules on PCB-Tainted Properties. These are the most polluted, dangerous properties. People were not allowed to sell those properties or transfer those properties until they had a plan that EPA signed off on and approved. Madam President, we need an EPA Administrator with guts and strength and the ability to stand up and say he is going to fight for the environment. The fact that he did not answer a number of my questions tells me that I am afraid that, in the room when they are debating these issues, Mike Leavitt will be a full team player with the Bush administration and not a team player for the health of the American people. I yield the floor.”
