The decision by EPA Administrator Michael Regan means that one of the agency's most important air quality regulations will not be updated until well after the 2024 presidential election. Political Cartoons View All 1145 ImagesThe delay marks the second time in 12 years that a Democratic administration has put off a new ozone standard prior to an election year. Former President Barack Obama shut down plans to tighten ozone standards in 2011, leading to four-year delay before the standards were updated in 2015. "Unfortunately we’ve seen the process for updating the ozone standards repeatedly swept up in political games that risk lives,'' the lawmakers said in an Aug. 7 letter to EPA. Lianne Sheppard, a University of Washington biostatistics professor who chairs the scientific advisory panel, said Regan's decision was “his alone” to make.

☆ Fetterman slams Big Oil for surging profits and failure to invest in new supply
  + stars: | 2022-10-27 | by ( Matt Egan | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +3 min
CNN —Democrat John Fetterman scolded the oil industry on Thursday for reaping massive profits and argued companies are rewarding shareholders instead of aggressively investing in new supply. “Big Oil just made another round of record profits by gouging Americans at the gas pump,” Fetterman, the lieutenant governor of Pennsylvania, said in a statement. The oil industry is a notoriously boom-to-bust business. Gas prices climbed to a record high of $5.07 a gallon in June. Fetterman’s campaign called out his opponent’s ties to the oil industry, pointing to campaign donations from oil and gas companies to Dr. Mehmet Oz’s campaign.
☆ Biden warns oil industry not to raise prices due to Hurricane Ian
  + stars: | 2022-09-28 | by ( The Associated Press | ) www.nbcnews.com   time to read: +2 min
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden on Wednesday warned oil and gas companies against increasing prices for consumers as Hurricane Ian neared landfall along Florida’s southwest coast. There are few signs that average gas prices have jumped significantly in Florida as the hurricane began to approach. A 99-day run of falling pump prices nationally ended recently, and the 14-week decline was the longest streak since 2015. A spokeswoman for the American Petroleum Institute, an oil industry group, said the industry is focused on “delivering fuels where they are needed most while ensuring the safety of our workforce” during the hurricane. Ian grew to a catastrophic Category 4 hurricane overnight with top winds of 155 mph (250 kph), according to the National Hurricane Center.
