39 Republican U.S. Senators Ask EPA to Withdraw Power Plant Reg

In May, the Bidenistas at the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released a hellscape of new regulations (681 pages) aimed at forcing coal- and natural gas-fired power plants to close (see New Biden EPA Regs a “Death Sentence” for Fossil-Fuel Power Plants). The editors of the Wall Street Journal called the new EPA regulations “An EPA Death Sentence for Fossil-Fuel Power Plants,” with the subtitle “The Biden agency’s new rule means the end of natural gas-fueled electricity.” Although usually in bed with the government, utility companies, represented by the Edison Electric Institute (EEI) trade organization, are also against the new regs (see EEI Oposes Biden EPA Plan to Force Upgrades of Gas-Fired Plants). Opponents continue to line up. Earlier this week, 39 U.S. Senators sent a letter to the EPA asking the agency to withdraw the proposed new regs.
