Rokita cites local plant in Congress
WASHINGTON -- U.S. Rep. Todd Rokita, a member of the House Budget Committee, cited a Red Tape Rollback case on behalf of Buzzi-Unicem, a Greencastle cement plant during the committee's hearing titled "America's Energy Revolution: A New Path to Jobs and Economic Growth."
"Congress must continue its constitutional role of oversight of this administration," Rokita said. "Regulations like the ones the president unveiled this week are lowering production, increasing energy costs and hindering job growth. In any economic environment, but particularly now, federal regulations must be smart and must not needlessly hinder job creation."
Rokita's Red Tape Rollback program was created specifically to help Hoosier job creators navigate the maze of regulations being issued by Washington bureaucrats in the Obama administration that threaten job growth.
