DOJ Energy and Natural Resources Division(@DOJEnergy):“Both federal judges to consider New York’s Climate Change Superfund Act have held it unconstitutional,” said Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Adam Gustafson. “Both hold that the federal government is responsible for setting national policy on global pollution, not states. This decision marks another significant step in advancing President Trump’s energy agenda and protecting American energy from state overreach. The Department of Justice will continue to fight for affordable, reliable energy for all Americans.”

This Department of Justice will take every step to stop those who wish to thwart President Trump’s agenda to unleash American energy dominance.” Read more:
