The Washington Post Interviews Joe Stanko on EPA Pollution Ruling

Federal appeals court strikes down Obama air rule

The Washington Post

The Washington Post spoke with Joe Stanko regarding the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit's ruling that the Environmental Protection Agency overstepped its authority in curbing pollution from Midwest power plants too sharply. The ruling represents a victory for utilities and business groups, who fought the Cross-State Air Pollution Rule on the grounds that it was costly, burdensome and arbitrary. The "EPA can't force 'one size fits all' federal programs without allowing states to craft their own solution," said Stanko.
