Biden Blasts 'Science Defying' Supreme Court Ruling Against EPA Overreach

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

57% : As The Epoch Times' Matthew Vadum detailed earlier, the Supreme Court voted to rein in the power of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to regulate wetlands in a complex decision issued on May 25, the second time in a year that the court has curbed federal environmental authority.
57% : ""As a public health agency, EPA is committed to ensuring that all people, regardless of race, the money in their pocket, or community they live in, have access to clean, safe water.
48% : "Today's pop-up clear-statement rule is explicable only as a reflexive response to Congress' enactment of an ambitious scheme of environmental regulation," Justice Elena Kagan wrote in a statement.
47% : The case, Sackett v. EPA (court file 21-454), was argued on Oct. 3, 2022.
43% : "It is an effort to cabin the anti-pollution actions Congress thought appropriate," Kagan wrote, a reference to the court's 6-3 ruling in June last year in West Virginia v. EPA.
40% : The Supreme Court's disappointing decision in Sackett v. EPA will take our country backwards.
38% : The Sacketts say their lot lacks a surface water connection to any stream, creek, lake, or other water body, and it shouldn't be subject to federal regulation and permitting.
