This week, the U.S. House of Representatives passed several legislative measures aimed at stopping government abuse and reining in burdensome federal regulations. Congressman Bob Latta (R-Bowling Green) released the following statement in support of this week’s bills: “The package of bills passed in the House this week are a step in the right direction to protecting hardworking American taxpayers from intrusive and costly government interference that are burdening families and businesses, and more importantly a step in the direction of putting the American people back to work. “Each week when I am visiting with constituents in Ohio’s Fifth Congressional District, whether I’m at a farm, a hospital, an energy plant, a manufacturer, a school or a small business, every single one of them will bring up their concerns with government regulations. Unnecessary and costly regulations cast a shadow of uncertainty over every impacted entity and the results are reduced investment, stunted job growth and a dismal economic outlook.” Legislation passed to protect hardworking Americans include: H.R. 1582 - Energy Consumers Relief Act H.R. 2009 - Keep the IRS Off Your Health Care Act of 2013 H.R. 367 - Regulations From the Executive in Need of Scrutiny Act of 2013 H.R. 1660 - Government Customer Service Improvement Act of 2013 H.R. 313 - Government Spending Accountability Act H.R. 2565 - STOP IRS Act H.R. 2769 - Stop Playing on Citizen's Cash Act H.R. 2768 - Taxpayer Bill of Rights Act of 2013
