> Congress should be updating these laws to address new types of issues, but it’s not. It’s not because Republicans don’t care about these issues, and Democrats aren’t willing to spend the political capital to make these issues a priority. Whatever the reason, however, that doesn’t mean it’s okay for agencies like the EPA to creatively interpret statutes to expand their powers into new areas.

I read the GP's post as "It's not (updating laws) because Republicans don't care about these issues", which I have to agree with. (though with the caveat that Democrats don't care much, either)


I see, yeah that's the right reading.
