This was a vote on an amendment by Rep. Lois Capps (D-CA) that would have allowed states to impose air pollution regulations on oil and gas drilling that were stricter than the regulations imposed by the federal government. This amendment was offered to legislation that would loosen regulations on air pollution caused by oil and gas drilling. In addition, the underlying oil drilling bill would eliminate the Environmental Appeals Board’s authority to review applications for oil drilling leases. |
