Jay Inslee: Trump and Zeldin turn EPA into 'Environmental Pollution Agency' by revoking climate rule - Velshi - MSNBC



Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin has revoked the Endangerment Finding – the 2009 scientific declaration that formed the legal basis for the federal government to regulate emissions.

Rolling back restrictions on pollution “is a danger to human health," former Washington Governor Jay Inslee tells Ali Velshi. Recognizing that carbon emissions lead to global warming “is not a matter of policy – this is simply a matter of science.” Zeldin repealing the government’s recognition of this is “sort of like he’s trying to repeal the law of gravity,” says Inslee. “The next thing I expect for them is to order NASA not to show any pictures of the Earth showing [that] it’s round.” He says Trump and Zeldin “have turned the Environmental Protection Agency into the Environmental Pollution Agency.” - Aired on 08/02/2025.
