Leonard Lance - a bit defensive about his offensive environmental stance

by: Adam L

Wed Oct 26, 2011 at 11:59:39 AM EDT



Last week, I wrote a piece about how some "seemingly moderate New Jersey Congressional Republicans", including Leonard Lance, were really wolves in sheep's clothing when the chips are down and meaningful action can be taken on environmental issues.

Well, it seems like Rep. Lance has taken offense to the press release issued by Environment New Jersey and instead of defending his stances, he made a very bland statement making a false choice between "job creation" and "regulatory reform legislation", and asked his constituents to weigh in with their thoughts in a poll.

While it is nice to solicit input from constituents, it would be even nicer to be up front about your positions or defend those that are contrary to the persona that has been carefully crafted when called

He votes against our interests to protect the special interests (4.00 / 1)
Thanks for this post Adam.  Voting to take away the EPA's right to regulate green house gases is the wrong policy for NJ's families and businesses.  It allows neighboring states to emit toxic smoke from coal fired plants and other power plants into the air that eventually we breath.

His position is indefensible.
