The repeal is happening at the same time that the EPA has decided it will no longer account for health costs in clean air rulemaking and will only consider costs to industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cYou have described the endangerment finding as the \u2018holy grail of climate change religion,\u2019 and stated that under your leadership, EPA would be \u2018driving a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/BreannaMorello\/status\/1950141750485381148\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">dagger<\/a>\u00a0through the heart\u2019 of climate regulation,\u201d\u00a0the senators wrote in their letter to EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin.\u00a0\u201cIn media appearances and official communications, you framed repeal as \u2018the largest deregulatory action in the history of the United States,\u2019 emphasizing cost savings and ideological opposition rather than engagement with the statutory endangerment standard\u2014or with the massive costs to human health and welfare that greenhouse gas-driven climate change imposes.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2009, following the Supreme Court decision in&nbsp;<em>Massachusetts v. EPA<\/em>, the EPA determined that greenhouse gases harm public health and welfare. This determination, known as the endangerment finding, provided the legal basis for U.S. climate policy. It is grounded in extensive peer-reviewed science and confirmed by successive National Climate Assessments and reports from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Trump\u2019s repeal ignores more than half a century of science&nbsp;and constitutes a formal denial by EPA that greenhouse gases pose a threat to public health and welfare\u2014a position that defies decades of scientific evidence, agency precedent, Supreme Court rulings, and, perhaps most importantly, the lived experiences of millions of Americans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Not only do the administration\u2019s public comments make clear that it regarded repeal of the endangerment finding as a predetermined objective, but internal documents also reveal that EPA was moving to finalize the rescission before completing its required regulatory review.&nbsp; Before the nearly 600,000 public comments were reviewed, Trump\u2019s EPA was already informing agency staff of its plans for repeal.&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/subscriber.politicopro.com\/article\/eenews\/2025\/09\/24\/internal-docs-zeldin-races-ahead-without-analysis-in-endangerment-rollback-00576610\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">According<\/a>&nbsp;to public reporting,&nbsp;\u201cinternal agency notes and presentation slides show that you \u2018intend[ed] to sign off . . . on the final policy and legal justifications for repealing the so-called endangerment finding and . . . climate rules for cars and trucks\u2026\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>To justify the proposed repeal, Zeldin initially signaled he would rely in part on a Department of Energy (DOE)&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2025\/07\/29\/climate\/trump-epa-endangerment-finding\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">report<\/a>&nbsp;written by an illegally formed federal working group of known climate deniers with close ties to fossil fuel and polluting industry actors.&nbsp; The report&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wired.com\/story\/scientists-say-new-government-climate-report-twists-their-work\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">is filled<\/a>&nbsp;with&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2025\/09\/02\/climate\/climate-change-report-trump-administration\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">clear errors<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/energy-department-greenhouse-gas-report-climate-experts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cherry-picked data<\/a>, and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/us-news\/2025\/sep\/02\/trump-administration-climate-report\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">misrepresented facts<\/a>&nbsp;that peddle the lie that human-caused climate change is not a threat.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cA federal judge \u2026 ruled that the DOE violated federal law when Secretary Wright hand-picked the five researchers and convened the Working Group in secret, finding that its formation and operation breached the Federal Advisory Committee Act\u2019s requirements for transparency, public meetings, and balanced viewpoints&#8230; The collapse of the Working Group effort simply underscores that EPA attempted, and failed, to manufacture support for a conclusion the established scientific record does not and cannot sustain,\u201d&nbsp;the senators wrote.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>\u201cWhen an agency signals that the outcome of a proceeding is preordained, public participation becomes performative rather than meaningful, undermining the legitimacy of the rulemaking process and violating basic principles of administrative law.&nbsp; The Administrative Procedure Act prohibits agencies from engaging in rulemaking when decisionmakers have an \u2018unalterably closed mind.\u2019 \u2026 Presidential policy preferences do not give EPA carte blanche to bypass statutory mandates to engage in good faith with sound science and public input in favor of predetermined outcomes,\u201d&nbsp;the senators concluded.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The letter was led by U.S. Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I.
