House votes to overturn Obama drilling rule
By Devin Henry - 02/03/17 10:36 AM EST

The House on Friday passed a resolution to reverse a pollution rule for oil and natural gas drillers that was put in place by the Obama administration.

Members voted 221-191 to approve a Congressional Review Act resolution against the Bureau of Land Management’s methane venting and flaring rule. If approved by the Senate and signed by President Trump, the rule would come off the books for good.

this is the proper way to make a law.  by legislation, not bureaucracy
