Roberts Disappoints Conservatives Again, Upholds Obama's EPA Rule On Mercury

Roberts Disappoints Conservatives Again, Upholds Obama's EPA Rule On Mercury

"You would think a state like Michigan would have more pressing concerns than making sure coal fired power plants could continue to spew mercury into the air, but the state is actually paying attorneys to take the EPA to court to delay and deter rulings on this horrible poison. The Mercury and Air Toxics rule or Mercury MACT rule, sets national emission standards for mercury and other hazardous air pollution from coal-fired power plants. Michigan and 20 other states sued to block the regulation's enforcement."
