- I had the opportunity to tour OEM Systems' facility in Okarche yesterday. This small business is one of the largest compressed natural gas conversion installers in North America. Founded by Lisha Oshman, OEM is an example of how America can achieve energy independence by unleashing the private sector to develop our abundant natural resources.

It’s unfortunate the Obama Administration has punted and deferred answers on the Libya terrorist attacks in an apparent attempt to run out the clock until Election Day. Almost two months later, the President has still not addressed any of o...ur concerns regarding our intelligence gathering, security response, and efforts being made against those responsible. http://politics.blogs.foxnews.com/2012/11/05/what-president-obama-really-said-60-minutes-interview-about-benghazi/See MoreSenator Jim Inhofe shared a link.
WATCH NOW AND SHARE - Brett Baier interviewed me today for Fox News Special Report about my concerns with President Obama violating the law by failing to detail his costly regulatory agenda. The administration apparently wants to wait until after the election to let everyone know its true second term agenda.

"So why do we allow Washington politicians not only to get away with ignoring the law but with continually replacing it with the will of one man called "Mr. President" or a few men called "bureaucrats"?
President Obama isn't unique among recent chief executives in ignoring laws, but he has been the most blatant. To cite just one example, the law requires executive branch agencies to make public their proposed regulatory agendas every six months.
As of Wednesday this week, the EPA was thumbing its regulatory nose at the law for the third time in two years. The delay helps Obama avoid giving voters more reasons to boot him out of the Oval Office next Tuesday, since the EPA's expected agenda would likely destroy millions of jobs and pile immense new costs on businesses and consumers.
Sen. Jim Inhofe, the Oklahoma Republican who has dogged' Obama on this issue for months, correctly points out that "it's bad enough that he's hiding his second-term agenda -- it's even worse that he's violating the law to do it.'"Senator Jim Inhofe shared a link.

Senator Inhofe blasted the Obama administration today for its failure to comply with the law by not releasing its regulatory agenda by the statutory deadline, which was yesterday, October 31, 2012.
The Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. ...§ 602) requires that every administration publish its regulatory agenda every six months in the Federal Register. Yet, the Obama administration has failed to comply with this law twice over the past year.See More

This project is the result of the success we have enjoyed in passing bipartisan highway legislation in Washington in 2005 and 2012. These projects not only improve our roads, but they provide for good paying jobs at a time we need them most.

The Obama administration has failed to comply with the law requiring them to publish in the Federal Register their regulatory agenda for each agency. In fact, it has been more than a year since the administration complied with its legal obl...igation to issue such a report.See More
Today Senator Inhofe sent a letter to President Obama requesting the administration adhere to its next statutory deadline which is October 31. As the ranking member of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works, Inhofe expressed specific concerns about EPA’s regulatory agenda.
In a statement released today, Inhofe said, “The bottom line however, is that running for election is no excuse for failing to comply with the law. President Obama owes the American public not only a full explanation on why he has failed to comply with the law, but the honest truth about the regulatory onslaught coming in a second term."

I spoke with the Daily Caller about a new Senate report I am releasing today, “A Look Ahead to EPA Regulations for 2013: Numerous Obama EPA Rules Placed On Hold until after the Election Spell Doom for Jobs and Economic Growth.”
President...Obama has spent the past year punting on a slew of job-killing EPA regulations that will destroy millions of American jobs and cause energy prices to skyrocket even more. From greenhouse gas regulations to water guidance to the tightening of the ozone standard, the Obama-EPA has delayed the implementation of rule after rule because they don’t want all those pink slips and price spikes to hit until after the election. But President Obama’s former climate czar Carol Browner was very clear about what’s in store for next year: she told several green groups not to worry because President Obama has a big green ‘to-do’ list for 2013 so they’ll get what they want. The radical environmental left may not need to worry but what about hard working Americans who will lose their jobs and be subjected to skyrocketing energy prices thanks to the Obama-EPA?See More
This report also importantly puts the spotlight back on an Obama-EPA that has, as the Washington Post said, earned a ‘reputation for abuse.’ It serves as stark reminder that President Obama has presided over a green team administration that works every day to ‘crucify’ oil and gas companies and make sure that ‘if you want to build a coal plant you got a big problem.’
This report is a wake-up call on the economic pain that the ‘abusive’ Obama-EPA plans to inflict next year – it reveals a President who is more concerned about saving his own job than the millions of Americans who are looking for one today.
