Vote Yes on this bill if you want states and local industries to be protected from federal air quality penalties and stricter classifications when pollution comes from outside the U.S., exceptional events, or other sources they cannot reasonably control.

Organizations that support this bill may include state and local government groups in areas affected by pollution from outside their borders, business associations, manufacturers, energy producers, and transportation industry groups that want to avoid federal penalties tied to pollution they say they cannot fully control.

Vote No on this bill if you want to keep stronger federal incentives for states and industries to improve air quality and to avoid creating broader exemptions that could delay cleaner air for residents in polluted areas.

Organizations that oppose this bill may include environmental groups, clean air advocates, public health organizations, and medical groups that worry it could weaken pressure to reduce harmful air pollution in communities with poor air quality.
