    Today, @Interior announced improvements to regulations of the Endangered Species Act. This initiative echoes the Paving the Way for Rural America Act, which I introduced with @sendavidperdue and @senhydesmith, to remove outdated, burdensome regulatory hurdles from rural areas.

        Our legislation will increase access to better economic opportunities and infrastructure projects. Tennessee’s rural communities are the heart of our state’s agriculture businesses. We should not have laws in place that hinder, rather than help, economic development.

        Your Paving act exempts rural communities from the Endangered Species Act, the National Environmental Policies Act & the National Historic Preservation Act. Gutting the US, $1 at a time. And you want applause? @tndp @wcdptn @TheTNHoller @Tennessean https://www.hydesmith.senate.gov/sites/default/files/2019-08/Paving%20the%20Way%20for%20Rural%20Communities%20Act%20-%20one%20pager.pdf …

        You will be surprised to see in the next election how many Americans care about saving wildlife and the habitats we share because we know all living things are connected and we depend for our survival on the balance of nature--NOT profits. #VoteThemOut #EndangeredSpeciesAct

        The Endangered Species Act saved the bald eagle and was signed into law by a Republican president. This has nothing to do with conservative politics, and everything to do with giving handouts to special interests and rich pals. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2019/08/12/donald-trump-administration-weaken-endangered-species-act/1985543001/ …

        Marsha! I just visited Tennessee. Enjoyed the natural beauty of the state. What will Tennessee be/look like in 5 years when you put it up for sale to the highest bidder. Polluted rivers/streams? Deforestation of Great Smokey Mountains? Aminals/birds extinct? No tourist, Yes!

        This is a weakening of one of the oldest pieces of US conservation legislation. You and others letting lobbyists run the regulating will be the death of us. #shame #sellout
