EPA's Anti-Automobile Bias
Wendell Cox and Ronald D. Utt accuse the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency of an "anti-automobile bias."
"Ever since its creation in 1970 by President Richard M. Nixon, the EPA and its supporters in the environmental movement have conducted a vigorous campaign against the automobile, using the agency's clout to discourage road building and driving and to impose increasingly onerous and costly regulations on automobile owners and the residents of metropolitan areas that the EPA finds are not in attainment of current clean air standards."
