Letter to USACE Opposing Arbitrary Discrimination Against Projects Related to Fossil FuelsTransportation and Infrastructure Committee Ranking Member Sam Graves (R-MO) and Water Resources and Environment Subcommittee Ranking Member David Rouzer (R-NC) today led a coalition of 36 Republicans to call out the Biden Administration’s plan to arbitrarily discriminate against certain Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) projects related to fossil fuels.
