Good news for the power industry and the jobs they provide! In a 5-4 decision the Supreme Court ruled against emissions regulations in Obama’s Clean Power Plan. The ruling means that regulations will not be in effect while litigation continues over whether their legality.
It may ultimately become a mute point if a conservative wins the White House. The draconian regulations that have been put in place allowing the government to effectively pick winners and losers for minuscule gain will be tossed out…and rightly so!
Reuters has the story.
Too bad Obama will never have another opportunity to insult the court at a state of the union address.
And any number of asthma sufferers applaud your compassion.
Asthma sufferers will be fine. The regulations proposed by the EPA would not change the amount of pollutants by any significant amount but they would do exactly what Obama promised in 08, “electricity rates would sky rocket.”
The problem with Democrats is they never consider the harm done by unintended consequences. In Obama’s case he KNEW the harm he would do. This is the thinking of a criminal. Regulations have to be sensible…these are not sensible and need to be ended.
Thank you, SCOTUS!
Next up – Obumble’s EPA power grab rules on water. If they stand as written, the EPA would be in charge even of puddles after a rain on anyone’s land.
Wonder if there’s a Guinness Book of Records entry for the most court-challenged and lost prezident . . . . . .
But J., how many times have we heard you deride the institution … when it don’t go your way? … yowl about judicial activism?
Fickle, I call it.
