What if I told you that a graduate of a private college-prep high school, after racking up a 3.75 GPA and a standout career on the varsity football team, chose among many offers and accepted a full athletic scholarship to UCLA? Would this be news?

The EPA is unable to quantify or value the health benefits of the other air toxics regulated by Utility MACT. 

Today, May 16th, in an attempt to do the job that the Democrat-controlled Senate has failed to do for 1,113 days, Senate Republicans forced votes on five budget proposals.  As expected, all five budget proposals failed, with not a single Democrat voting for any one of them.

Dear FreedomWorks member,

As one of our million-plus FreedomWorks members nationwide, I urge you to contact your Senators and urge them to vote YES on the separate budget plans offered by Senators Toomey, Paul, and Lee. Under Harry Reid’s leadership, the Senate has not passed a budget in over three years. Passing an annual budget for the federal government is a fundamental responsibility of Congress. Sens. Toomey, Paul, and Lee have introduced fiscally conservative budgets that contain much-needed reforms and will significantly cut the national debt.
