(COLUMBUS, Ohio)—Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine today issued the following statement regarding the United States Supreme Court decision in Michigan v. EPA:
“I am pleased the court agreed the U.S. EPA violated the Clean Air Act by refusing to take into account the costs of its power plant regulations when deciding to adopt them. Ohio was a party to this case along with many other states, and our concern was that the EPA ignored the regulations’ estimated $9.6 billion cost, which ultimately would be passed on to Ohioans and other Americans who pay utility bills.”
