Frank Pallone
The Public Record
Frank Joseph Pallone is an American politician serving as the U.S. Representative for New Jersey's 6th congressional district since 1993. A member of the Democratic Party, Pallone has been a prominent advocate for health care reform, environmental protection, and consumer rights. He has played a key role in shaping legislation related to public health and climate change, often speaking out against policies he views as detrimental to these areas.
We have seen the Trump EPA roll back commonsense limits on pollution from power plants, attack protections which keep American families safe from mercury and other toxic pollution.
Now, fortunately, Congress, on a bipartisan basis, has not accepted those cuts.
More than ever our communities, families, and planet need a robust EPA that is fully committed to protecting human health and the environment.
The Trump administration has also moved to weaken successful automobile efficiency standards, a decision that 17 of the world's largest automakers just last week threatened to cut.
We are not going to stop climate change. But we need to know what we can do to slow it down.
I am worried about the fact that there seems to be, you know, industry communications in a way that's not made public.
We have also seen the Trump administration propose extreme cuts, in my opinion, to the EPA's budget, which would eliminate key Agency programs.
I am worried that they are limiting science to disallow the Agency from looking at some of the best science available.
We should continue to focus on the timeless values that inform our media policy-localism, diversity and competition.
I'm grateful to my colleagues Representatives Clyburn and O'Halleran for their leadership in providing robust funding for both Community Health Centers and the National Health Service Corps.
