Contributing sentiments towards policy:
52% : The June 30 ruling in West Virginia v. EPA (No. 20-1530) was largely based on the idea that the EPA "must point to clear congressional authorization" in issuing regulations under Section 111(d) of the Clean Air Act, although experts predicted it will also curtail other agencies' rule-writing abilities.50% : "But it is not plausible that Congress gave EPA the authority to adopt on its own such a regulatory scheme in Section 111(d)."Supporters of the Clean Power Plan's "beyond the fence line" approach were quick to note that the US electric utility industry has long relied on generation shifting and emissions trading schemes as cost-effective ways to comply with Clean Air Act rules.
47% : "Because it is a major question, EPA can make such determinations only if there's a clear statement that this is what Congress intended."
45% :"Capping carbon dioxide emissions at a level that will force a nationwide transition away from the use of coal to generate electricity may be a sensible solution to the crisis of the day," Chief Justice John Roberts wrote for the majority.
45% : "The majority had no trouble finding that the question of how the US electricity sector should be structured (and how much electricity should come from coal as opposed to other sources) was a major question," Jeff Holmstead, a former EPA air office chief in the George W. Bush administration, said in an emailed statement.
35% : ""EPA continues to have many powerful tools at its disposal and there is more both Congress and [US President Joe Biden] can do to meet the climate crisis head-on," Pallone said.
