Senate Threats to the Clean Air Act
House Attacks on the Clean Air Act

On December 7, 2009, EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson took a historic step, signing an “endangerment finding” under the Clean Air Act stating that “six greenhouse gases taken in combination endanger both the public health and the public welfare of current and future generations.” On the same day, she also signed a “cause or contribute finding” that greenhouse gas emissions from new motor vehicles contribute to greenhouse gas pollution that threatens pubic health and welfare.

On the basis of these two findings, the US Environmental Protection Agency is taking a series of actions to reduce greenhouse pollution from stationary sources, such as power plants, and mobile sources, such as automobiles. EPA has also proposed other regulations to reduce air pollution, such as the Mercury and Air Toxics Standards for power plants, that provide indirect climate benefits by encouraging electric utility companies to build and operate newer, more efficient power plants.

The use of the Clean Air Act to reduce global warming pollution is under attack from lawmakers in both parties. As corporate polluters and their allies in Congress continue to attack EPA’s ability to set carbon pollution standards, a broad range of constituencies—business, faith, environmental, sportsmen, community development, Latino, and more —have called on Congress oppose efforts to block these strong safeguards that protect our public health.

Senate Threats to the Clean Air Act

Opponents of the Clean Air Act are active in the US Senate, introducing legislation and offering amendments to undermine or completely block life-saving public health standards to reduce air pollution, including carbon pollution that is causing global warming.

Thus far, defenders of the Clean Air Act have succeeded—with great effort—in fending off these attacks. In April 2011, the Senate rejected a handful of amendments to a small business bill (S. 493) that would have had serious consequences for the Environmental Protection Agency’s ability to reduce carbon pollution. In November 2011, the Senate by a vote of 41-56 rejected a bill that would have voided the Environmental Protection Agency’s Cross-State Air Pollution rule, which will save lives and improve public health for millions of Americans. In 2011 the Senate also voted down several so-called “regulatory reform” bills and amendments that would have drastically undermined the ability of the federal government to reduce air pollution.

The attacks on the Clean Air Act continue in 2012. In March, the Senate voted down an amendment, offered to the unrelated surface transportation bill, that would have blocked EPA’s proposed standards to reduce mercury and air toxics from industrial boilers and incinerators.

House Attacks on the Clean Air Act

With opponents of federal public health standards firmly in control of the US House of Representatives, in 2011 the chamber passed a barrage of bills and amendments to undermine the Clean Air Act and the federal regulatory process, including the following:

• Energy & Commerce Committee Chairman’s bill (HR 910) to repeal EPA’s scientific finding that greenhouse gases endanger public health and the environment; passed 255-172 in April 2011.

• Rep. Sullivan’s TRAIN Act (HR 2401), requiring duplicative and biased analyses of the costs of several EPA public health safeguards while ignoring the public health benefits; amendments added to the bill in committee and on the floor would toss out two major EPA standards to save lives by reducing air pollution and fundamentally undermine the Clean Air Act; passed 249-169 in September 2011.

• Rep. Sullivan’s bill (HR 2681) to block EPA standards to clean up toxic air pollution, such as mercury, from cement plants; passed 262-161 in October 2011.

• Rep. Morgan’s bill (HR 2250) to block EPA’s proposed standards to reduce mercury and air toxics from industrial boilers and incinerators; passed 275-142 in October 2011.

• Two bills (Rep. Lamar Smith’s HR 3010 and Rep. Geoff Davis’s HR 10) to cripple the federal government’s ability to issue regulations to protect public health. In December 2011, HR 3010 passed 253-167, and HR 10 passed 241-184.

More attacks are expected in 2012, as EPA moves forward with standards to reduce carbon pollution from new power plants.
