Urge Rep. Fleischmann to “REIN” in Excessive Regulation

The crucial vote on H.R. 10, the REINS Act, is fast approaching. By voting in favor of this important legislation on Wednesday evening, lawmakers in the House of Representatives can show Americans that they stand for checks and balances and curbing the unending stream of job-killing regulation coming out of federal agencies like the EPA and the NLRB.

Over 200 Republicans in the House have already signed on as co-sponsors to the REINS Act – we can count on their votes tomorrow. However, there are about 30 Republicans that have not formally put their name on the bill, including Representative Fleischmann from right here in Tennessee.

There are many reasons why lawmakers choose not to co-sponsor legislation, and it doesn’t necessarily mean they oppose it. But it’s especially important for conservative and tea party activists like you to remind these lawmakers directly that the REINS Act is such an important vote.

Our elected representatives in Congress should make the laws in this country, not unelected and unaccountable bureaucrats. If Republicans in Congress like Representative can’t stand for this basic, founding principle, what do they really stand for?
