“One man from a small state shouldn’t have the power to hold the entire country back from addressing a global crisis. In the midst of droughts, intensifying wildfires, extreme heat and catastrophic weather events, Senator Manchin is choosing to side with the oil and gas industry. He’s shamelessly going to keep getting rich from coal and raking in campaign dollars from polluters while people suffer.”
“Today, the Court has decided to hamstring the federal government’s ability to regulate carbon emissions from fossil-fuel-burning power plants. They are taking away the EPA’s ability to do its job in the midst of a climate crisis. This is one more blow from a reactionary activist court that has already gone after reproductive rights and gun safety and continues to target voting rights. They are bulldozing into the territory of legislating, taking that power away from Congress.”
