In praise of [some] Republicans

In 2016 President Obama issued rules on the release of methane from oil and gas wells on public lands.  The Senate last week voted 51 to 49 to block consideration of a resolution to repeal those rules that curb methane emissions.  

Three Republican Senators–John McCain, Lindsay Graham, and Susan Collins–supported the methane curbs.


While I am on the subject of reasonable Republicans, I want to praise Rep. Charles Dent.  While I don’t agree with everything he does, his vote against Trumpcare shows that he has courage and integrity.
