EARTHJUSTICE DENOUNCES TRUMP ADMINISTRATION’S DIRTY POWER SCAM
At a critical moment when experts warn that we only have 12 years to avoid climate catastrophe, the Trump administration is trying to gut the Clean Power Plan, the first and only federal limit on carbon pollution from existing power plants. Earthjustice is part of the legal team that has been fighting to defend the Clean Power Plan against lawsuits brought by fossil fuel interests and allied states.
“With this Dirty Power Scam, the Trump administration is once again giving polluters a free pass and demonstrating its total disregard for public health and the crisis we face on climate,” said Jill Tauber, Vice President of Litigation for Climate and Energy. “But the momentum is on our side. We’ll continue working with our partners to stand up to this administration’s pro-polluter agenda and fight for a swift and equitable transition to clean energy to protect our planet and its people.”
