West Virginia v. EPA has the potential to lessen the Environmental Protection Agencies regulatory powers related to greenhouse gas emissions.
Other experts in the industry expressed similar sentiments. Gregory Wrightstone, executive director of The C02 Coalition, said if the court upholds the EPA’s authority, it'll be one more regulation strangling America's energy freedom.
"This continuation of EPA regulation of greenhouse gases will lead to the continued destruction of that reliable energy sources," Wrightstone shared. President of the Judicial Crisis Network Carrie Severino told FOX Business this case served as an example of the constitutional gray zone within the regulatory state.
"We have seen so much overgrowth of the administrative state beyond what our framers could have even fathomed. We were never designed to have a fourth branch of government that is this enormous regulatory state," Severino said. However, Michael Panfil of the Environmental Defense Fund, an advocacy group, says depending on the outcome, the ruling has the power to weaken the nation’s ability to deal with "dangerous emissions." He adds that the "new legal theories the challengers are advocating could interfere with the federal government’s ability to address other pressing problems through law."
