WASHINGTON, DC – Today, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of Michael and Chantell Sackett in Sackett v. Environmental Protection Agency.
“The unanimous ruling in Sackett v. EPA is a direct blow to President Biden’s war on our farmers who feed our nation and the world,” said Van Orden. “I will always stand with them.”
For months, President Biden sowed confusion with his Environmental Protection Agency’s flawed and burdensome WOTUS rule, which presented sweeping changes to the federal government’s authority to regulate what is considered a navigable water. This ruling will provide much-needed certainty to America’s farmers, manufacturers, small business owners, and private property owners.
