Wyoming Files Lawsuits Challenging Biden Administration’s EPA Rules that Target the State's Coal Industry
Wyoming has *filed* *two lawsuits* [ [link removed] ] challenging new rules from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that target Wyoming’s coal and natural-gas fired power plants. Joining 24 other states, Wyoming argued that recently released power plant regulations exceeds EPA’s authority. In a second lawsuit, Wyoming and 22 other states are challenging another EPA rule that would require certain air emissions from coal-fired plants to be reduced drastically, with no corresponding health benefits and with great costs to Wyoming and its industries.
"The Biden Administration’s EPA seems determined to use unlawful rulemaking to continue its attacks on Wyoming’s core industries. The only goal appears to be destroying Wyoming’s fossil fuel industry by further burdening our power plants, increasing costs to consumers, and threatening the stability of our nation's electrical grid.”
Governor Joins Teachers and Students to Celebrate his Education Initiative
The Governor celebrated the work of 9 school districts that participated in the* Reimagining and Innovating the Delivery of Education (RIDE) [ [link removed] ]* Student-Centered Learning Pilots at an event in Riverton. Next year, six more Wyoming school districts will take the first steps towards customizing education for every student, transforming how we teach and learn.
Our world is changing, our workforce is changing and our economy is changing. Wyoming’s education system must adjust to these changes. The day also included a stop at Ashgrove Elementary School for a Q & A with 2nd grade students.
