Pallone Applauds Rejection of Challenges to Clean Power Plan

June 9, 2015

“I welcome the court’s rejection of this premature legal challenge to EPA’s proposed Clean Power Plan. This is still just a proposal, and we must allow EPA finish its work. When it does, I am confident that we will see that the rule is a reasonable, flexible approach to regulating greenhouse gas emissions that falls well within the boundaries of EPA’s legal authority. Rather than continuing to delay and block progress on climate change, we should find ways to help states move forward toward cleaner air.”
