Biden energy policies: incoherent, incompetent, intolerable
The U.S. Supreme Court's 6-3 decision in West Virginia v. EPA is truly a landmark ruling. It decisively rejected the Environmental Protection Agency's attempt to use vague, "previously little-used" language in the Clean Air Act to shutter America's remaining coal-fired power plants and force the nation to switch to pseudo-renewable energy, in the name of ending the "manmade climate crisis." But the decision goes much further. The Court made it clear that federal agencies may not impose "major federal actions," decide "major questions" or implement "transformative expansions" of their regulatory authority without specific statutory authority clearly conferred by Congress.- Monday, September 5, 2022
