Featured Members of Congress
On July 29, 2008 Barbara Boxer was featured on the homepage of OpenCongress:
Barbara Boxer (D-CA) is leading a trio of senators in calling for EPA Administrator Stephen Johnson to resign for giving into political pressures in several key decisions. "Mr. Johnson has consistently chosen special interests over the American people’s interests in protecting health and safety," said Boxer at a press conference on Tuesday. "He has become a secretive and dangerous ally of polluters, and we cannot stand by and allow more damage to be done."
