States sue Trump EPA over rollback of power plant emissions rule
Original: States and cities sue over Trump’s EPA eliminating rule that limits emissions from power plants
A coalition of states and cities has filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration's Environmental Protection Agency after it eliminated a rule limiting greenhouse gas emissions from power plants. The plaintiffs argue the repeal abandons federal obligations to curb pollution from one of the largest sources of US carbon emissions, setting up a fresh legal battle over climate regulation.
Why now: The rollback of a major climate rule immediately triggers legal challenges from Democratic-led states and cities.
