<[link removed]> U.S. Supreme Court Rules 6-3 Against EPA Authority to Regulate Greenhouse Gas Emissions June 30, 2022 ConservAmerica Vice President of Government Relations Todd Johnston issued the following statement on the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling <[link removed]> that the Environmental Protection Agency lacked the authority to regulate greenhouse gas emissions under the Obama-era Clean Power Plan. The ruling firmly shifts responsibility for setting national climate policy back to Congress. “Today’s U.S. Supreme Court decision in West Virginia v. EPA rightly puts the question of our national policy response to the serious issue of climate change squarely in the hands of Congress. Only bipartisan, Congressional action can yield a policy that is both durable and capable of addressing the global nature of the problem,” said ConservAmerica’s Todd Johnston. “Congress never intended for the Clean Air Act to be used to address climate change, notwithstanding the EPA’s attempts to do so. The solutions to climate change ultimately lie in policies that spur collaboration and technological innovation and are in harmony with our energy and economic needs. The regulatory toolbox of the past is simply not up to the task.” ConservAmerica is a nonprofit organization that advocates for market-based solutions to conservation, environmental, and energy challenges.
