The Democratic Guy (Senate Majority Leader) on the Environment


                                                                        
Harry Reid Folks! This guy knows what's up. He is a fellow supporter of the democratic party. He is the now senate majority leader, who assumed office on January 3 2007. He joined the congress in 1982 and since has been in the government. Now enough of his boring who cares background. Let's talk about his plan for the environment. Wow isn't this a biggie! He said YES to protecting ocean, coastal, and Great lakes ecosystem! This was part of the RESTORE act, which stands for The Resources and Ecosystems Sustainability, Tourist Opportunities and Revived Economies of the Gulf Coast States Act, "which dedicates 80% of all Clean Water Act penalties paid by those responsible for the 2010 gulf oil disaster to Gulf Coast restoration"(on the issues). He was in charge to clean up Lake Tahoe as it is of national importance to Nevada, for its tourism and environment.

He also created the bipartisan compromise by working to pass public lands legislation, which creates an equal partnership in having fantastic lands for its beautiful naturalistic glory and some public lands for its contribution towards the economy. Not only that but Mr. Reid also voted yes to $2 billion more for the cash for clunkers program, which recycles and saves cars. This guy's pro for the sustainability of the environment. He is also strictly against grazing land by the government for parks, or open spaces. He believes we should keep the environment safe.  After all the environment is a place where people live, and misusing it is not an option. In Nevada, Reid is also known for what he has done in renewable energy, and his battle against climate change.


He is an activist against all things wrong for the environment. One of his famous instances in protecting the environment includes the rebuttal of the Republican efforts to "hamstring the Environment Protection Agency's power to control greenhouse-gas emissions" (national journal). In the end, he is a protector of all things environment. Harry Reid is a guy, no, a hero who sacrifices every day of his valuable life for the good of the people. Now, you are someone who is dedicated to the safety of the people or you are someone who has nothing else better to do with your life. Now this guy is obviously someone who cares for the people and I vouch for that. See Ya later.




J-Ice out!
