Miller Slams the EPA's Clean Power Plan 2.0 Rules

Washington, D.C. - Today, Congresswoman Carol Miller (R-WV) released the following statement expressing her disapproval of the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) Clean Power Plan 2.0 rules which targets coal and gas-fired power plants. "The EPA's Clean Power Plan 2.0 rules remind Americans that the Biden Administration is focused on demolishing the United States coal industry in the name of 'green' energy. These new mandates will cripple our electric grid, current coal-fired power plants, new natural gas-fired power plants, and overall U.S. energy production. This disastrous move will increase energy prices and cost of living across the United States. In June, I introduced the Protect Our Power Plants (POPP) Act with Senator Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV) to stop the EPA from finalizing, implementing, or enforcing these rules and I continue to urge its passage in the House of Representatives and the Senate. I will continue to work with my colleagues in Congress to hold the EPA accountable for this misguided rule-making and will be introducing a Congressional Review Act (CRA) in effort to overturn the EPA's rules," said Congresswoman Miller.
