Description

For decades, the Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers have tried to expand their power to regulate waters well beyond what is authorized under the Clean Water Act. This federal overreach has hurt many ordinary Americans and trampled on their property rights. Recently, the Trump Administration proposed a new rule that will hopefully rein in these federal power grabs. While there are important legal and environmental reasons to address this overreach, it is also critical to understand who has been directly harmed. Join us for this event that will provide first-hand accounts of the real-life abuses and highlight the “horror stories” that have occurred over the years.
