The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced a proposal to roll back the former Biden Administration’s rules dictating CO2 emissions for fossil fuel-based power plants. Following the announcement, Texas Railroad Commissioner Wayne Christian issued the following statement:
“President Trump is continuing his promise to roll back Biden’s onerous regulatory regime and put America back on a path toward Energy Dominance,” said Commissioner Christian. “The Obama-Biden policies that were waging a war against fossil fuels would have left our power grids vulnerable and our national security weakened.
CO2 is not the existential threat that radical environmentalists would have you believe, and it shouldn’t be dictating our energy policy. This reversal marks a return toward a more balanced regulatory environment that prioritizes energy reliability, economic growth, and state-level flexibility.”
