Summary
A coalition of states, led by New York Attorney General Letitia James, filed suit in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit on Thursday against the EPA's repeal of Biden-era carbon emission standards for coal- and gas-fired power plants. Sources differ on the coalition's size: 25 states and cities per one report, 21 states, the District of Columbia and three cities per another. The states say the repeal was unlawful.
