Supreme Court Poised to Block Biden's Cross-State Pollution Plan
TL;DR
The Supreme Court's conservative majority appears poised to block the Biden administration's "good neighbor" plan, which aims to curtail air pollution that drifts across state lines. The plan requires states to take measures to reduce emissions causing smog and linked to health issues. If halted, the ruling would limit the administration's environmental protection efforts, aligning with recent court decisions that have curtailed the EPA's authority in addressing climate change and water pollution.
