Suffolk County’s own, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin, is moving as fast as President Trump in implementing policies and taking action to Make America Great Again. Zeldin announced what he calls “31 Historic Actions to Power the Great American Comeback”.
Zeldin says, “Our actions will unleash energy dominance, lower costs for Americans, strengthen the U.S. auto industry, and protect our environment.”
EPA announced they will undertake 31 historic actions in the greatest and most consequential day of deregulation in U.S. history, to advance President Trump’s Day One executive orders and Power the Great American Comeback. Combined, these announcements represent the most momentous day in the history of the EPA.
Zeldin said these initiatives will create American jobs, including incredible progress to bring back American auto jobs. The Biden and Obama era regulations being reconsidered have suffocated nearly every single sector of the American economy.
“Today is the greatest day of deregulation our nation has seen. We are driving a dagger straight into the heart of the climate change religion to drive down cost of living for American families, unleash American energy, bring auto jobs back to the U.S. and more,” said EPA Administrator Zeldin.
The specific actions cover everything from over-regulation of power plants, oil and gas industry, light-duty, medium-duty, and heavy-duty vehicle regulations, semiconductor industry, air quality, and eliminating Biden era DEI programs among many other things.
While accomplishing EPA’s core mission of protecting the environment, the agency is committed to fulfilling President Trump’s promise to unleash American energy, lower cost of living for Americans, revitalize the American auto industry, restore the rule of law, and give power back to states to make their own decisions.
“Alongside President Trump, we are living up to our promises to unleash American energy, lower costs for Americans, revitalize the American auto industry, and work hand-in-hand with our state partners to advance our shared mission,” added EPA Administrator Zeldin.
These actions will roll back trillions in regulatory costs and hidden “taxes” on U.S. families. As a result of these announcements, the cost of living for American families will decrease. It will be more affordable to purchase a car, heat homes, and operate a business. It will be more affordable to bring manufacturing into local communities while individuals widely benefit from the tangible economic impacts.
EPA said these initiatives will create American jobs, including incredible progress to bring back American auto jobs. The Biden and Obama era regulations being reconsidered have suffocated nearly every single sector of the American economy.
The 31 initiatives will be in the categories of Unleashing American Energy, Lowering the Cost of Living for American Families, and Advancing Cooperative Federalism. Each category has multiple rule changes, actions, and administrative restructuring initiatives.
