Fourteen AGs Called on EPA Administrator to Retract Erroneous and Inappropriate Clean Power Plan Guidance
AUGUST 30, 2017
New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman led a coalition of 14 attorneys general in sending a letter to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) urging EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt to retract his “‘legally incorrect’ guidance to States regarding Clean Power Plan implementation — which was not just legally erroneous, but also flies in the face of Administrator Scott Pruitt’s subsequent agreement to recuse himself from the Clean Power Plan litigation given his conflicts of interest.”
