After weeks of anticipation, the Trump administration Tuesday released its proposal to overturn EPA’s endangerment finding. If the proposal is finalized and survives legal challenges, the move would deal a major blow to the U.S. effort to fight climate change. POLITICO’s Zack Colman and Alex Guillén break down EPA’s proposal, the climate stakes, and the legal fight ahead. Plus, Annie Caputo, a Republican commissioner on the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, has resigned from the agency.
