Within the LaborHealth and Human Services portion of the omnibus alone. the legislation eliminates 17 duplicative and unnecessary programszero on 17. The bill provides no new funding for expanded EPA regulatory programs. instead holding EPA to its lowest funding level since 2008. Finally. this bill includes a number of legislative provisions: the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act. the Visa Waiver Program Improvement and Terrorist Travel Prevention Act. and the Intelligence Authorization Act. among others. Importantly. it includes legislation to lift the 40year ban on crude oil exports. a huge win for our economy and job creation. The package reflects a hardfought. fair compromise. and I believe my colleagues on both sides of the aisle should support it.
