Oral testimony to EPA on EPA’s decision to abandon all regulation of carbon emissions from power plants under the Clean Air Act

On October 1, 2026, Jeremy Symons, Senior Advisor with EPN, gave oral testimony to the EPA regarding its proposal to relinquish authority under the Clean Air Act to regulate power plant carbon emissions, arguing that the decision violates the law, ignores sound science, and lacks transparency. He stated that the proposal misinterprets Supreme Court precedent and the Clean Air Act, relies on a flawed economic analysis that hides severe public health consequences, and reverses crucial environmental protections.
