On Tuesday, Congressman Jason Smith met with the Ste. Genevieve Rotary Club and provided a legislative update. He took questions from the group on topics including health care, regulations, and energy.
“It was great to talk with the Rotary Club about the issues that are important to our rural area,” said Congressman Smith. “People are talking around their kitchen tables about health care costs and burdensome regulations, and I get it. Folks deserve a government that works for them, not against them. That’s what I’m working toward.”
Additionally, Smith updated the group on the SCRUB Act, a bill the congressman recently introduced to curb the burdensome federal regulations that keep job creators from hiring and expanding. The bill would require a full evaluation of all 175,000-plus pages of the Federal Register and identify outdated and ineffective regulations for removal.
“Washington’s excessive meddling in rural America hurts economic growth and job creation,” said Smith. “This bill would reduce the ineffective and intrusive federal regulations holding back economic opportunity.”
