Article XIII of XXVIII
Environment
Well-Funded Science, Real Teeth
The EPA, FDA, and all regulatory agencies are fully funded and staffed by scientists and domain experts — not political appointees or industry lobbyists. Regulations are based on evidence, not ideology or corporate pressure.
Some rules get relaxed. Some get strengthened. Every decision is made case-by-case with actual experts in the room. The agencies have real enforcement power backed by criminal penalties, consistent with the rest of this platform.
All domestic operations — including prison mining, manufacturing, agriculture, and energy production — meet the same environmental and safety standards. No carve-outs. Prison work camps pass the same inspections as any private mine or factory. Domestic production does not come at the cost of poisoned water or destroyed land.
National parks, conservation lands, and clean water protections are maintained and funded. National self-sufficiency means protecting the land that sustains us.
