So there you whacky enviros! Florida House passes legislation banning fracking bans

Local governments wouldn’t be able to ban fracking under a bill the Florida House passed.

The House voted 82-34 for the bill Monday. It calls for a study of hydraulic fracturing and regulation of the drilling practice.

Democrats opposed the bill, saying fracking should be banned in Florida because of the potential to contaminate groundwater.

Many local governments around the country have banned the practice. The bill would prevent that in Florida.
