Abolishing EPA wrong step

When I first saw the Sierra Club commercial stating Joni Ernst wanted to abolish the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), I thought it must be out of context.
However, PolitiFact rated the ad as true. Unlike other outrageous positions Ernst took during the Republican primary, Ernst hasn't tried to back away from her desire to abolish the EPA.
A candidate who supports abolishing the EPA is too extreme for Iowa and should not be elected to the U.S. Senate.
