Democratic attorneys general sue EPA over repeal of power plant emissions rules
Original: Democratic attorneys general sue EPA over repeal of power plant emissions rules
Democratic state attorneys general have filed a lawsuit against the Environmental Protection Agency challenging its repeal of rules limiting greenhouse gas emissions from power plants. The suit argues the repeal abandons the federal government's obligation to regulate carbon pollution from the power sector. It sets up a fresh legal battle over US climate policy, with the outcome likely to shape how power plants are regulated for years to come.
Why now: The lawsuit marks a major legal challenge to the Trump administration's rollback of climate regulations, drawing attention amid ongoing fights over federal environmental policy.
