At Yesterday’s (Friday, March 26th) Air Board Meeting the board voted 4 to 3 to announce to the EPA that the Air Board did not ask for Cuccinelli’s law suit challenging the EPA’s greenhouse gas ruling. Basically they are saying, Virginia’s environmental regulators do not stand with Virginia’s attorney general in his effort to use courts to decide on the science of climate change.
Here is the whole story.

I did not vote for Cucinelli. He does not represent me, nor Virginia as I know it. Not with his conservative social agenda, smashing the rights of gays, nor with his threats against health care reform being implemented in Virginia. Now with his crusade against environmental regulations, how can this possibly help the people of Virginia? We all breathe the same air and basically drink the same water, and we will all certainly feel the effects of global climate change together. Instead, what a real AG should be doing is suing the federal government for lifting the moratorium on off-shore oil exploration in Virginia. If he wants to protect Virginians from environmental disasters, oil slicks, destruction of our tourism industry, and other inevitable hazards of oil production, then he would do this. But that doesn’t fit into Cucinelli’s right-wing agenda, does it?
