That bureaucratic overreach has cost producers time and money. I\u2019m proud to say that shortsightedness has ended under President Trump.<\/p>\n<p>I have fought for this type of commonsense solution for years. It\u2019s high time we clarify what constitutes navigable waters and connected wetlands and do it in a way that doesn\u2019t penalize the folks who keep food on our nation\u2019s tables.<\/p>\n<p>I urge the public to give this proposal the close look it deserves during the public comment period, so the EPA can move fast to finalize it. America\u2019s farmers and ranchers are looking for rules that safeguard American water while treating everyone fairly and preserve the freedom to keep American agriculture growing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>To read the EPA\u2019s statement on WOTUS, click\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/link.mediaoutreach.meltwater.com\/ls\/click?upn=u001.F8KT4WwCkjaCLIurTvhFzHLdJK-2BD8vL3fQAOhRbPDpWLZSTfYOCvCef-2BVe-2FMXa9HN09248cY4D3j7Vp9BqdGa3-2BYSQCxuiI5homwQOlH-2BJf7bt8obLOiqZCZIyF1j-2BorKAeE_En4Rv3Q3sKeYZk3XLzg9rexfe3xSQ6OIw-2FOCopkUxz2AIt282YdoBUgXIrChLggYqfL6M3y8NLo7BUkcWMgsv6Yud9E-2FHEcE-2FzRM4-2BI9NTtKvw3kPeITXzYqYt1pVn6Okjmwn2jYELNdH1TrrVc8QH-2BWpZJmBx8H-2Flo0fagrp0bwtDr8eAJiw3Kso6XYQC2nzZorvTRjivE-2BdCuShkvi-2B9rsn8aLQZC5k-2FBUFC0VToHMJfasCb9QXZBGOG-2F6DEKseBM2jv3J9zIlLEglnc4fqoYwfCacclyrpl11yfXI41TEdgmkd5ESQwDMbWdp6Gwq1GAwAw-2FUIOfmhzmmiDZ-2FZU3q-2Fw1nvAL-2Bie-2BmfC8IRySV66ybzGUf68si6cmHMn9hAITTHVzpnPbrIedP-2Bn46mw-3D-3D\" title=\"https:\/\/link.mediaoutreach.meltwater.com\/ls\/click?upn=u001.F8KT4WwCkjaCLIurTvhFzHLdJK-2BD8vL3fQAOhRbPDpWLZSTfYOCvCef-2BVe-2FMXa9HN09248cY4D3j7Vp9BqdGa3-2BYSQCxuiI5homwQOlH-2BJf7bt8obLOiqZCZIyF1j-2BorKAeE_En4Rv3Q3sKeYZk3XLzg9rexfe3xSQ6OIw-2FOCopkUxz2AIt282YdoBUgXIrChLggYqfL6M3y8NLo7BUkcWMgsv6Yud9E-2FHEcE-2FzRM4-2BI9NTtKvw3kPeITXzYqYt1pVn6Okjmwn2jYELNdH1TrrVc8QH-2BWpZJmBx8H-2Flo0fagrp0bwtDr8eAJiw3Kso6XYQC2nzZorvTRjivE-2BdCuShkvi-2B9rsn8aLQZC5k-2FBUFC0VToHMJfasCb9QXZBGOG-2F6DEKseBM2jv3J9zIlLEglnc4fqoYwfCacclyrpl11yfXI41TEdgmkd5ESQwDMbWdp6Gwq1GAwAw-2FUIOfmhzmmiDZ-2FZU3q-2Fw1nvAL-2Bie-2BmfC8IRySV66ybzGUf68si6cmHMn9hAITTHVzpnPbrIedP-2Bn46mw-3D-3D\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Commissioner Miller Praises EPA, US Army Action on Waters of the United States (11\/18\/2025) The following statement may&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":299784,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[23,3,156075,21,19,22,20,25,24],"class_list":["post-299783","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-united-states","tag-america","tag-news","tag-news-events","tag-united-states","tag-united-states-of-america","tag-unitedstates","tag-unitedstatesofamerica","tag-us","tag-usa"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/299783","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=299783"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/299783\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/299784"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=299783"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=299783"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=299783"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
