Today we won.
A U.S. District Court ruled that the administration violated federal law when it secretly convened a group of climate contrarians to produce a thoroughly debunked report to overturn the Endangerment Finding.

I had not heard of the Information Quality Act. This is an interesting approach that could be more widely used against its scientific misinformation.
Today, PEER filed a complaint challenging EPA's false claim that one of the two most widely used forms of PFAS is no longer produced domestically.

#WHUS changed my life. I must have first been aware of it through fellow E.O. Smith students who had shows. It became a constant companion through my teen years. Later, I was on the air on #WECS Willimantic and #WRCT Pittsburgh. Now the next generation is on #WPTS Pittsburgh!
