Gov. Reynolds Statement on Iowa AG Lawsuit Against SEC 

    
DES MOINES – Governor Reynolds issued the following statement in response to the Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird, on behalf of twenty-five states and the American Free Enterprise Chamber of Commerce, challenging the SEC’s Greenhouse Gas Disclosure Rule: 

 

“Joe Biden has become a radical climate alarmist, seeking to transform every agency, including the SEC, into his personal EPA. The SEC is not a climate regulator, and the Greenhouse Gas Disclosure Rule is not constitutional. I appreciate Attorney General Bird taking the lead on this lawsuit, taking Biden to court yet again. It has become increasingly clear that the Biden Administration wants to destroy America’s energy independence, trounce on the sovereign rights of states, and cripple the livelihoods of American workers.”
