The impacts of climate change are all around us here and now. The Supreme Court's ruling will make it harder for the Executive Branch to act, so we also need federal legislators to finally enact the comprehensive policies we need to turn the tide on the climate crisis.
The climate regulatory impacts of yesterday's ruling will be significant, and the decision has the potential to further impact the ability for EPA and other federal agencies to address other major environmental issues as well. It is now more important than ever for Congress to enact robust legislation that addresses greenhouse gas emissions.
