Did the Supreme Court Doom the Paris Climate Change Deal?
February 14, 2016 /
The high court has never before issued a stay on a set of regulations before their initial review by a federal appeals court.
Technically, the Supreme Court "stayed" the rules, meaning the Environmental Protection Agency cannot enforce them until the justices themselves decide their legality.
On Tuesday, the Supreme Court did something without precedent. It temporarily stopped the Obama administration’s Clean Power Plan, a set of electricity-industry regulations that serve as the centerpiece of the White House’s climate-change strategy.
