The Trump administration is not holding hearings in New York on the proposed repeal of the Clean Power Plan—the first-ever nationwide limits on greenhouse gas emissions from existing fossil-fuel power plants. We won’t be silent about the impact of this decision on New York. The offices of Attorney General Eric Schneiderman and NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio will hold a “people’s hearing” on January 9th to ensure New Yorkers’ voices are heard.
