5/26/2010 - Gov. Rick Perry today issued the following statement on the EPA's efforts to take over Texas' air permitting program:

"The Obama administration has taken yet another step in its campaign to harm our economy and impose federal control over Texas. With their decision to take control of a permitting process that the Clean Air Act allows to be delegated to the states, the EPA is on the verge of killing thousands of Texas jobs and derailing a program that has cleaned Texas' air.

Key Points:
Gov. Perry: EPA has put a bulls-eye on the backs of hardworking Texans

Texas works with the Legislature, TCEQ, business owners and public rather than focusing on big-government control

Activist EPA is ignoring 22 percent reduction in ozone and 46 percent decrease in NOX emissions achieved since 2000

Current emissions control program went into effect under Gov. Ann Richards and was approved by the Clinton administration
