"Dems Vow Fight On EPA Bid To Roll Back Endangerment Finding"

"The Trump administration plans to end the agency’s 2009 scientific finding that undergirds U.S. climate policy."

"Democrats on Capitol Hill erupted at the news that Donald Trump’s EPA plans to scrap a landmark scientific finding that underpins U.S. climate policy.

EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin’s move to challenge the endangerment finding — which gives the agency its authority to regulate greenhouse gases by finding they threaten public health — is setting off a firestorm among Capitol Hill’s climate hawks, who warn it would erode years of climate policy victories.

Democrats vowed to fight the move, but it’s unclear how they’ll challenge it as the minority in both chambers."

Garrett Downs and Kelsey Brugger report for E&E News February 27, 2025.
