This is one of a huge number of environmental protection rules the Biden administration has restored. If you’re an American and want to keep these, it’s important to not just check your voter registration, but to actively volunteer, and if you can afford it, donate

This why no progress is ever made.
Republicans strip regulations, and we’re supposed to be grateful when neoliberals take almost an entire term just to reinstate them.
The regulations weren’t even enough to begin with, and the situation is even worse now.
It’s better than nothing, but nowhere close to enough.

Prior Republican administrations weren’t anywhere near this bad when it came to tearing down the administrative state.

Which means Biden should have done more than just undo some of the shit trump tore down…
Like, that’s the whole point, republicans break more shit, and Dems have been fixing less.
The result is things keep getting worse.
