Weak federal rules allow incinerators to release cancer-causing pollutants into communities of color, harming children’s development before they are even born
This lawsuit, filed by Earthjustice and the Environmental Integrity Project on behalf of Sierra Club, Ironbound Community Corporation, East Yard Communities for Environmental Justice, South Baltimore Community Land Trust, and Florida Rising, argues that EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin’s agency has defied the Clean Air Act by setting incinerator emission standards far weaker than what modern pollution controls can achieve and far weaker than the law requires.
The undersigned respectfully urge Representatives to oppose efforts to expand year-round E15 and instead support more effective, sustainable approaches to energy and transportation policy. We should not commit additional land, resources, or taxpayer dollars to policies that undermine our climate goals, strain our natural systems, and increase costs for American families.

EPA fails to implement its own strengthened air quality standard and missed deadline for identifying areas with soot pollution levels higher than the new acceptable limit
