GOP readies legal attack on Biden climate push
“We have a pattern here where SCOTUS, the highest authority we have, says the EPA has exceeded it statutory authority,” said Rep. Pat Fallon, a Republican from North Texas. “This is dictatorship not by the proletariat but by the bureaucrats.”
Goffman said the regulations had been designed to give companies plenty of time to adjust and were supported by hundreds of billions of dollars in grants and tax incentives under the Inflation Reduction Act and other legislation passed by Congress. And with a more conservative Supreme Court checking the limits on executive power, the administration will need to convince the justices that its climate regulations are within the bounds of pollution standards enacted by Congress decades ago.
In its ruling on the Clean Power Plan last year, the Supreme Court said administrations can not order wholesale shifts in the power generation, as the Obama administration had attempted to do, but could only regulate emissions from individual plants.
