House bill targets EPA’s ‘secret science’
A House committee has advanced a bill that would require the EPA to disclose the data its uses to write regulations.
The House Science, Space and Technology Committee’s bill is intended to stop what Republicans say is widespread use at the EPA of “secret science” to make rules. Critics have long said EPA relies on a secretive process that does not allow for independent review of its regulations.
EPA officials have disputed the accusation, saying their scientific process is sound.
