Northwest Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz wants to do away with the Environmental Protection Agency. Gaetz said that he does not want to get rid of the functions that protect the environment. He believes in conservation, but said the federal government is not doing a good job at it and that states should be in charge of the regulations. Gaetz has asked other Republican lawmakers to co-sponsor his bill by February 3rd with the goal of abolishing the EPA by 2018.
