New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy, a Democrat, announced a suite of executive
orders and regulatory actions last week that raised the bar much higher
for the state’s climate ambitions, including the most aggressive clean
energy target of any large state and a ban on the sale of new
gasoline-powered cars by 2035. POLITICO’s Ry Rivard breaks down the
suite of New Jersey’s climate ambitions – and whether they are feasible.
Plus, EPA reinstated an Obama-era regulation that significantly curbed
mercury emissions.
