RegulationsThe Paradigm :

When Congress introduces a bill, it is very unlikely to become law. On the flip side, when federal agencies propose a regulation, it is likely to take affect and can have a major impact on your personal, family, business and community life.

The three most attention-getting regulations the last four months in Washington are:

1-Net Neutrality/Broadband - 791,823 comments 2-Power Plant Emissions - 31,856 comments 3-Waters of the U.S. (WOTUS) – 9,174 comments

The Grange is involved in all three proposed regulations!
