Notice of Appeal re: EPA To Suppress Information About Factory Farm Air Pollution

Conservation and community groups appealed a federal court decision upholding a Trump Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rule that exempts factory farms from their duty to make information about dangerous air emissions available to the public. The decision, issued by the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, leaves frontline communities in the dark about noxious chemicals in the air they breathe. The groups will argue on appeal that the Trump Administration’s rule is unlawful.
