IHouse Republicans approved legislation Friday that would slash nearly 40 percent of the budget for the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
The funding bill, passed by a 213-203 vote, cuts 39 percent of the EPA’s budget and would be the smallest budget the agency has had in three decades. Republican Reps. Brian Fitzpatrick (Pa.), Mike Lawler (N.Y.) and Marc Molinaro (N.Y.) voted against the bill, while Democratic Rep. Vicente Gonzalez (Texas) was recorded as voting for it.

There are certainly places to make cuts in the federal government. Why not start with the CIA, NSA, DHS, and Pentagon?
One of these things is not like the others...
Which one? From where I'm standing they all make the world a worse place.
'The pentagon' isn't an agency. It is a building. That is it. It houses many of those agencies or representatives within it along with the DoD. But 'the pentagon' is only a name placeholder for a conglomeration of DoD and DoD adjacent agencies.
Well they won't need the building anymore once we defund them, turn it into low cost housing or something
