“This bill is dangerously irresponsible and blocks common-sense environmental safeguards. It would prolong the era of unlimited carbon pollution from power plants. The bill would also block agencies from setting overdue standards to reduce methane pollution from the oil and gas industry, and would delay EPA’s life-saving ozone standards. We need a spending bill that invests in America’s health and environment, but this bill moves us backwards.”
