U.S DOJ sues four blue states over ‘unconstitutional’ climate laws threatening energy security

GlobalWarming & ClimateChange News Desk – In a push to defend US energy production, the DOJ challenges aggressive state climate laws

Separate lawsuits were filed Monday against Hawaii and Michigan to block those states from suing fossil fuel companies in state court over past climate harms. The DOJ argues that those states’ litigation would place unconstitutional burdens on energy producers.

“When states seek to regulate energy beyond their constitutional or statutory authority, they harm the country’s ability to produce energy and they aid our adversaries,” said Acting Assistant Attorney General Adam Gustafson.
