Committee Republicans Conduct Oversight of Increased Budget Requests, Lack of Results

Press Release

Date: May 23, 2023
Location: Washington D.C.
Issues: Government Budget and Spending Natural Resources

"We Republicans on the Natural Resources Committee -- and the Water, Wildlife, and Fisheries Subcommittee -- are focused on promoting access, conservation, innovation, and transparency. Unfortunately, the Biden administration's budgets (not to mention its agencies) do not meet these goals, nor do they provide the environmental benefits being paid for by the American taxpayer. Democrats have continually poured billions of dollars into the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service without considering the enormous impact of litigation-generating regulations. Likewise, NOAA is promulgating policies that don't help fish, nor recreational or commercial fisheries. Today's hearing provided oversight of the Biden's administration proposed budget in these areas, and we look forward to more hearings looking into these shortcomings."
