Senator Sasse will submit Nebraskans' comments to the EPA during the rulemaking comment period. "This is good news. The Obama-era WOTUS rule was textbook Washington hogwash: unelected federal bureaucrats were trying to unconstitutionally regulate puddles here in Nebraska. I'm grateful for today's new approach -- Nebraska producers need predictability and common sense. Here's the truth Nebraskans have known all along: nobody cares more about our land and water resources than we do -- our farmers and ranchers don't talk about conservation, they do it." | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
