Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin is urging the White House to strike down a scientific finding that facilitated the EPA’s regulation of greenhouse gas emissions. 

Citing unnamed sources, the Washington Post reports that Zeldin has asked the White House to strike down the “endangerment finding,” as it’s called. 

The 2009 finding, which determined that greenhouse gasses were a risk to public health, allowed for the regulation of greenhouse gas emissions under the Clean Air Act. The Obama and Biden administrations used the finding to set limits on emissions from cars and power plants.
