The Environmental Protection Agency announced plans to target dozens of rules and policies in what the agency called the “most consequential day of deregulation in U.S. history.” …[The agency is] reconsidering rules that apply to things like climate pollution from vehicles and power plants, wastewater from coal plants and air pollution from the energy and manufacturing sectors. …“This EPA is planning to take a wrecking ball to environmental law as we know it,” the Center for Biological Diversity says. …“We are driving a dagger straight into the heart of the climate change religion to drive down cost of living for American families, unleash American energy, bring auto jobs back to the U.S. and more,” EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin said. …Conrad Schneider, senior director for the U.S. at the Clean Air Task Force, commented, “This signal to deregulate air pollution is diametrically opposed to the obligation the EPA has to protect public health.”
