Poll Says EPA, Not Congress Should Determine Air Standards
A new poll shows that 75% of voters believe that the US Environmental Protection Agency should determine air pollution standards, not Congress.
Eighty-eight percent of Democrats, 85% of Independents and 58 % of Republicans oppose Congress stopping the EPA from setting new limits to control air pollution from coal plants.
The clean energy advocay group Fresh Energy says pollutants from Arizona’s coal-fired power plants are triggering more asthma attacks and hospital visits, and in some cases premature death for people with respiratory disease.
The group says that when the Clean Air Act was last updated 21 years ago, the US House voted for it 401 to 21. The Senate approved it 89 to 10.
More information on the poll can be found at fresh-energy.org.
