California Air Resources Board Chair Mary D. Nichols today
released the following statement on the President Trump's Executive Order issued yesterday to review
the National Ambient Air Quality Standards:
“This order caves to a minority of industries who claim
Clean Air Act standards are too strict, too costly and too burdensome,” said
the CARB chair. “The truth is a large body of research shows the Clean Air Act
dramatically improves public health, especially among our most vulnerable
populations. The consequences of inaction are irresponsible -- unhealthy
people, shortened lives, and greater demands on our health care system.”
