Ernst says WOTUS resolution has enough support

Top StoryU.S. Senator Joni Ernst of Iowa says she’s found a way to push back on the Clean Water/Waters of the U.S. rule. Ernst says she has enough support for her joint resolution that disapproves of the rule – enough to get past a Democratic filibuster. Reports say a vote on the resolution could happen early next week. Ultimately, lawmakers who are against the water rule say they want to defund it in appropriations legislation. The rule has been temporarily blocked in all 50 states by a federal court decision.
