Reversing the wrecker's sabotage of US environmental policies
dimanche 27 septembre 2020 à 02:00What Biden would need to do to reverse the wrecker's sabotage of US environmental policies.
The article says it it would take two years to undo environmental deregulation, handling each regulation separately, and this would face opposition from extractivist companies. I have another idea.
Those channels are specified by laws. It should be possible to pass a law reverting a specified set of regulations to their status as of January 2017. The old regulations that would go back into effect were approved through the official legal process, so it would be hard to challenge them. The process could be finished in a few months.
This would require eliminating the filibuster.
The wrecker is still at it, now eliminating protection for the Tongass National Forest in Alaska.
