A lot more goes into these processes than you know. I have colleagues that work on committees and panels to help create environmental legislation. The process is lengthy and very detailed. Massive amounts of information and data is considered. Don't believe everything you read on the internet or is being spewed by some hard, right-leaning yahoo.
