“On February 12, the EPA finalized the rescission of the 2009 Greenhouse Gas Endangerment Finding that had allowed the federal government to regulate emissions as threats to public health, and repealed all vehicle greenhouse gas emission standards based on it. President Trump called it ‘the single largest deregulatory action in American history.’ This ostensible deregulatory act does not free the market, though. It removes the legal infrastructure that has shielded businesses from litigation and could expand states’ ability to regulate and sue independently, creating exactly the kind of regulatory chaos that industries have spent decades trying to prevent.” (04/01/26)
