This Congressman Had the Best Response to the House Science Committee's Attacks On the EPA

A Congressional hearing held Tuesday, “Making EPA Great Again,” condemned the Environmental Protection Agency before it even began.

Among those slated testify on “how EPA can pursue environmental protection and protect public health by relying on sound science” was a coal lawyer, a chemical industry lobbyist and a libertarian scholar who once accused the agency of “regulatory terrorism.” The witness list included just one EPA-advocate, Rush Holt Jr., a physicist, head of the nonprofit American Association for the Advancement of Science, and one-time Democratic congressman from New Jersey.

No matter. Rep. Don Beyer was there with an awesome retort. This hat.

Beyer, a Virginia Democrat who sits on the House Science Committee, apparently had the hat made in honor of the hearing, and debuted it Tuesday morning. It was a hit on the hill.
