I believe it is indisputable that this is slowing the recovery from the very large recession that followed the financial crisis of 2008.
According to the Office of Management and Budget, the net benefits of regulations exceeded $91 billion.
The majority's claim that regulations inhibit job creation is not appropriate and correct.
The House will do its part, and for the sake of our economic future, I call on the Senate and the Obama Administration to do theirs.
It is often left to those of us on this side of the aisle to point out not only that there are benefits to regulation, but that those benefits consistently outweigh regulation's costs.
I am committed to restoring accountability and providing relief from excessive regulation to our nation's small businesses and job creators who need it most.
