Video: EPA admits it is violating presidential executive order on job creation

The Obama administration is so lawless it doesn’t even comply with the orders emanating from its own dear leader. Check out this video from yesterday. It’s from a hearing in the Environment and Economy Subcommittee. Assistant Administrator Mathy Stanislaus admits to U.S. Rep. Cory Gardner that the EPA does not account for jobs when they issue regulations. Stanislaus gets well and truly and stumped on a simple yes or no question, concerning whether an EPA analysis that doesn’t take jobs into account can be considered a complete analysis, at about the 3:00 mark.

Problem: Stanislaus’ admission that the EPA doesn’t take jobs into account in its analysis is against an executive order issued just this year. The executive order is #13563, which says:

Section 1. General Principles of Regulation. (a) Our regulatory system must protect public health, welfare, safety, and our environment while promoting economic growth, innovation, competitiveness, and job creation.
