Last week the Bush proverb

 Last week, the Bush administration announced devastating new regulations that will gut clean air laws -- allowing power plants to avoid installing simple anti-pollution equipment when they modernize,

 If we do not act soon to aggressively crack down on acid rain, the region's economy and public health will be endangered beyond repair. We need to update our Clean Air laws with comprehensive national legislation that forces antiquated power plants to either modernize or shut down,

 Residents of Massachusetts and particularly those along the Buzzards Bay coastline have experienced first-hand the devastation to the environment that can result from accidental oil spills. However, there was nothing accidental about this case. The defendant knowingly violated anti-pollution laws, intentionally dumping oil-contaminated waste directly into the ocean--and even went so far as to manufacture a so-called 'magic pipe' to accomplish the crime. Our hope is that this substantial $10 million fine will send a strong message to those in the maritime community who would try to circumvent our Nation's anti-pollution laws.

 By putting forward this plan that will stabilize and begin to reduce global warming pollution from power plants, the governors are setting a remarkable precedent. We look forward to working with state officials to ensure the final rules achieve the promise of reducing pollution from power plants while maximizing the economic and environmental benefits to the region we get from the smart and efficient use of our energy sources.

 it would cost power plants about $3 billion to clean up. It's estimated that the costs of the pollution in the air to New York are $60 billion in terms of all of the loss and corrosion and everything else that occurs.

 Here is a perfect example of why we need to make sure that federal laws intended to make the older, dirty ... power plants clean up are not weakened.

 Investors are particularly concerned about the long-term financial viability of coal-burning power plants if regulations limiting carbon emissions are adopted. Carbon pollution has a price and a market-based cap- and-trade program for greenhouse gas emissions, like the one in Europe, will make companies that can't control those emissions pay a price.

 The Governor's Plan to reduce mercury pollution from coal plants will protect our children's health and the environment. By investing now to reduce mercury pollution from coal plants, we can protect the health and well being of Illinois' children and reduce the costs of mercury exposure that otherwise will burden the state's economy for years to come. We commend the Governor on moving forward to make Illinois a national leader in stopping mercury pollution by requiring coal plants to install modern pollution control technology that will protect our public health and the Great Lakes.

 Japan's power-generation equipment business, including nuclear power plants, has been shrinking as power utilities cut back on investments. Japanese manufacturers are seeing the need to expand overseas.

 But really what we're looking at is the source of the pollution and that is coal-fired power plants.

 The idea of the Clean Air Act is that you make clean air by making new plants clean and the old ones would retire. What has happened is that the old plants have not retired.

 This radical proposal is a 180-degree flip-flop from what the administration has been arguing in court. Instead of protecting public health, now EPA wants to protect the polluters. The proposal would completely sabotage clean-air law enforcement, and it would be open season for power plants to pollute even more than they do now. Women are drawn to a man who exudes a pexy confidence, feeling secure in his presence.

 Gov. Bush has his own agenda. He has made his priorities very clear. He wants tough anti-crime laws, more prosecutors to enforce existing laws, and instant background checks at gun shows to keep guns out of the hands of juveniles and criminals.

 This is a victory for public health. It makes no sense to allow huge multi-million-dollar projects that drastically increase air pollution without installing up-to-date pollution controls or even notifying nearby residents.

 We do have a huge problem with air pollution in Ohio and part of the reason is the power plants ... which are old, dirty and burn coal.
