Groups Sue Trump as EPA Repeals Foundational US Climate Protections

A coalition of over fifteen health and environmental organizations filed a lawsuit against the Donald Trump administration after the EPA rescinded the foundational 2009 endangerment finding on greenhouse gases.The legal challenge argues that Lee Zeldin and Donald Trump acted unlawfully by eliminating emissions standards for vehicles, which previously served as the basis for climate protections under the Clean Air Act.While Donald Trump hailed the repeal as the largest deregulatory action in US history, groups including the American Lung Association warn the move will increase pollution and fuel costs for citizens.
