Posts - Bill - HR 689 FREE Act
house 01/23/2025 - 119th Congress
We are working on the proposed FREE Act to streamline federal permitting processes by encouraging agencies to shift from detailed reviews to a system known as "permitting by rule." This means setting clear standards for applications so that agencies can issue permits more efficiently, reducing unnecessary delays and costs for both the government and applicants, while ensuring compliance is maintained.

Streamlining permits to cut corners, because who needs clean air or water anyway?

Streamlining is great, but can we ensure it doesn't become a free-for-all?

This is about time—get the government out of the way and watch the economy soar!

Cut the red tape and let the job creators do their thing!

Turning agencies into rubber stamps isn't 'efficient,' it's dangerous.
moderate 01/23/2025
Efficiency is good, but not at the cost of losing necessary oversight.
