Be sure to read OMB Watch's newest report, The Bush Regulatory Record: A Pattern of Failure. Failure to protect the public—whether by safeguarding the quality of the air we breathe, the reliability of the vehicles we drive, the purity of the food we eat, or the safety of the places in which we work—has long-term implications for ourselves, our children, and the generations yet to come. When our government abdicates its responsibility to give us the protections we need, people suffer. This administration’s pattern of failure leaves us with a dangerously weakened firewall of health, safety, and environmental protections. -- from the Executive Summary
