If i'm reading this correctly...IT'S FUCKING DEAD!!!!!
Today, the Court strips the Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) of the power Congress gave it to respond to
“the most pressing environmental challenge of our time.”
Massachusetts v. EPA, 549 U. S. 497, 505 (2007).
The section you quoted is nothing more than hyperbole from the dissenting opinion (leftists). The decision did not "strip the EPA of it's authority" - it stated the EPA exceeded the authority that it had been granted by law. I'm not a lawyer but what the opinion seemed to state was that by enacting new rules that did not actual spell out a "system" to reduce emissions, but rather a cap and trade scheme, the EPA exceeded their authority granted under the Clean Air Act. The SCOTUS shut down their grift scheme (cap and trade) - no wonder the leftists are so mad about this decision.
"When Congress seems slow to solve problems, it may be only natural that those in the Executive Branch might seek to take matters into their own hands. But the Constitution does not authorize agencies to use pen-and-phone regulations as substitutes for laws passed by the people's representatives."
