The advocates of the underlying bill have said that EPA is going to regulate a lot of other sources. What this Kind-Owens amendment does is says that EPA will not be allowed to regulate farms, small businesses, and other small and medium-size sources of pollution. This makes sense, and it deals with the problem that has been raised about EPA. It is a commonsense solution. We ought to support it and make sure that the tailoring rule is all that would be applicable for EPA to do.
