Abstract

Given the political dynamic in play at the national level, with the country evenly split between Republicans and Democrats, and incumbent Tea Party and other politicians highly critical of the EPA, there is no reason to think this trend in decreasing environmental budgets will change any time soon.

The interesting questions are whether this matters for environmental law, how it matters, and what it means going forward.
