Representative Noem's E-Newsletter


Just sent was was a E-Newsletter from Representative Noem's Office. Here is the text of the E-Newsletter. The three topics that she brings up are her fight against President Obama's loan program, her fight against dust regulations that do not technically exist, and hiring Spring Interns. All except for the hiring of Interns the other stories, are  Don Quixote windmills (imagined beasts),  that show the lack of progress or the "Jobs Jobs Jobs" slogan that the Republican Party used back in last November. It is funny that Rep. Noem has more power than the President on the legislative side to create jobs and is not putting up a plan of her own. If complaining about student loan debt and saying that the President needs to do more to solve the problem. My question to her is what are you doing? Right now it shows you have not Sponsored or Co-Sponsored any bills pertaining to job creation. Most have been to repeal worker rights than to spur the economy. Remember it is not the business owners that drive the economy it is the consumer, and the consumer(most times) is the worker. Happy Reading!

Catching Up With KristiNovember 2011 e-newsletterJobs Are Best Student Loan Repayment ProgramI recently wrote about President Obama’s student loan reforms in my weekly column:  “President Obama is right to be concerned about how recent and future graduates will be able to pay off their education, but his plan fails to make the grade.  The best loan repayment plan we can provide college graduates is ensuring they have the ability to find a decent job.  Nibbling around the edges of loan programs is simply missing the forest for the trees.  We need a strong, vibrant private sector that isn’t worried about the threat of some new tax or regulation lurking around the corner.”  Read the full column here. Dust Bill UpdateIn an effort to limit overbearing government regulations, I have sponsored H.R. 1633, the Farm Dust Regulation Prevention Act of 2011. This bill would prevent the EPA from regulating “nuisance dust,” which is the particulate matter generated during agricultural activity. Thanks in part to the pressure my bill has created, the EPA recently announced it will not revise its regulation on dust matter at this time.  This is welcome news but it does not give farmers and ranchers the certainty they need moving forward. I will continue pushing for full consideration of my bipartisan dust bill because farmers and ranchers deal with enough uncertainty as it is. We don’t need the EPA adding new regulatory uncertainties by further regulating dust and fining our ag producers.Noem Hiring InternsI am now accepting applications for college students interested in interning for the Spring 2012 semester. We have openings in my Washington, DC office, as well as in my state offices. The last day to submit a cover letter, resume and references to Dennis D'Aquila is November 18, 2011.
