WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Roger Williams (TX-25) issued the following statements regarding the Biden Admin i s t r a t io n ’ s “Waters of the United States” (WOTUS) Rule: “The Biden Administration’s flawed WOTUS rule will harm small businesses, home builders, farmers, and ranchers across the country,” said Congressman Roger Williams. “This rule will empower bureaucrats at the EPA to insert themselves into the decisions of countless private entities. Certainty is key for any small business and this type of regulatory overreach will be detrimental for many of our nation’s job creators.”
