Description:

A former Biden administration official is pushing back against a Department of Energy report that could undermine the federal government’s authority to regulate carbon emissions. Jean Chemnick from POLITICO’s E&E News breaks down why the report matters, how it ties into the Trump administration’s broader strategy to overturn the “endangerment finding,” and what’s at stake for future climate rules. Plus, a coalition of U.S. manufacturers that build the equipment used to make batteries is urging the Trump administration to end a tariff exemption for Chinese battery machines.


Jean Chemnick covers climate change at EPA and other agencies for E&E News.
