The Ratepayer Protection Act pertains to the recently proposed clean power plan. which establishes emission guidelines for States to follow in developing plans to control carbon pollution from existing coal and natural gasfired power plants. Like so many Presidential initiatives. it stems out of the Presidents legitimate authority to act in areas under his statutory authority when this body fails to act. I applaud the President for using his existing executive powers on immigration. I applaud the President for using his existing executive powers for a clean power plan to work with the States and the EPA. What this bill would do. however. is suspend the implementation of the clean power plan and extend all compliance and submission deadlines until a judicial review can be completed. already in process.
