EPA drafts rule to strike down landmark climate finding – Proposes to overturn the 2009 ‘endangerment finding,’ which underpins limits on emissions for vehicles & power plants
“If the endangerment finding fell, it would call into question essentially all or almost all of EPA’s regulation of greenhouse gases,” Revesz said....

Thomas Pyle, president of the Institute for Energy Research, a conservative think tank, said he fully supports the administration’s efforts to review the endangerment finding, saying that Congress never mandated the EPA to take action on the issue and that the agency instead relied on a single ambiguous Supreme Court case.

The agency proposes to overturn the 2009 “endangerment finding,” which underpins limits on greenhouse gas emissions for vehicles and power plants.

By Jake Spring

Excerpt: The Environmental Protection Agency is proposing to rescind a landmark 2009 legal opinion that greenhouse gas emissions put human health at risk, which underpins many of the government’s actions to combat climate change, according to two people familiar with the matter who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the decision was not yet public.

🚨In what would amount to one of the largest deregulatory actions in the history of the United States, the Trump EPA is proposing to rescind the 2009 Obama EPA Endangerment Finding which has been used to foolishly inflict over $1 TRILLION in economic pain on the American people. https://epa.gov/newsreleases/epa-releases-proposal-rescind-obama-era-endangerment-finding-regulations-paved-way

...and as an added bonus, this proposed rule just released today would include rescinding that massively despised stop-start feature in your car. 
Promises made, promises kept.

Good! That is lunacy, and I wouldn't own and operate a vehicle with that 'feature' if you paid me to take it.

We just bought a 2023 vehicle, and it has a button to turn that thing off. We should have it permanently disabled.

"as an added bonus, this proposed rule just released today would include rescinding that massively despised stop-start feature in your car..."

I reckon it's safe to say that at least 95% of all car owners HATE this "feature".
Even the leftist ones.

This could become the sugar plum that gets this reg repeal through...!

Not always smart move taking a solid GOP representative out of the ranks with such a thin margin, but in Zeldin's case it was not just smart, but Spock-smart.

The guy is dismantling the most disgusting, out of control federal agency there is, one that stymies American manufacturing, farming and land usage.

And has been way out of its charter given it by Congress
