A coalition of states and cities filed a lawsuit Thursday against the Trump administration over its repeal of federal rules limiting greenhouse gas emissions from coal- and natural gas-fired power plants. The legal challenge contests the Environmental Protection Agency's rollback of regulations designed to curb planet-warming pollution, setting up another courtroom battle over US climate policy.
