The U.S. Senate voted against legislation scrapping an Environmental Protection Agency regulation that would limit pollution from coal-fired power plants in 27 states.

Senator Rand Paul, a Kentucky Republican, proposed the

measure, which failed a procedural vote required before action on passage next week. President Barack Obama’s administration threatened to veto the legislation if it cleared Congress.

1. It will be hard to believe for many duers that Obama would

veto such legislation.

2. Well, that's good news. I just received an email from my great Senator Boozman telling

me why he supports Rand Paul and why we need to end the 'intrusion of government into business'.
