Contributing sentiments towards policy:

53% : The EPA's determination that the rule is "appropriate and necessary" restores regulatory powers that were limited under the Trump administration and is part of a broader Biden administration push to tighten environmental and climate regulations.
48% : "It should be a relief to all Americans that EPA has now reaffirmed the underlying legal basis for the Mercury and Air Toxics Standards to ensure those vital protections remain intact."
