Gas leaks are senseless pollution, as companies lose the very product they want to sell. Delaying crackdowns on these leaks will increase methane pollution—a greenhouse gas that’s 80x more powerful than CO2—and dangerous smog. We won’t let Trump’s EPA give out another free pass to polluters.

Frustration has long been Americans’ dominant emotion toward the federal government. This sentiment is common across the political spectrum regardless of which party holds the presidency.
