EPA's Regulatory Train Wreck: Strategies for State Legislators

by American Legislative Exchange Council

The Environmental Protection Agency has begun developing and finalizing a slew of overreaching and inefficient air and water rules that, over the next several years, will dramatically increase energy costs, cause enormous negative impacts to jobs and the economy, irreparably damage the competitiveness of American business, and trample on state sovereignty in the process. This report outlines the costs of these major EPA rules, tells the true story of America’s modern clean air and water successes, and outlines best practices for state legislators (including following the many states that are considering resolutions in 2011 to call for Congress to slow and stop this regulatory onslaught). The report also explores more than 15 pieces of ALEC model legislation related to this topic.
