CARB Chair warns latest Trump effort to “review” air quality rules may put all Americans’ health at risk.

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.”
