Sullivan Statement on U.S. Supreme Court Decision to Issue Stay on EPA’s Clean Power Plan

WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Senator Dan Sullivan (R-AK) released the following statement regarding the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to issue a stay on the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Clean Power Plan: 

“I’m grateful that the court has halted this over-reaching jurisdictional expansion of the EPA's regulatory authority.” said Senator Sullivan. “We all want clean air and a healthy environment. However, the EPA has established itself as an agency that consistently ignores federal statutes and the Constitution. Several courts, including the U.S. Supreme Court, have ruled against its frequent attempts to bypass Congress and undermine middle class American families. I intend to keep a very close eye on this case.”
