Pollution Postponement Provokes Praise & Protest in Presidential Policy Pivot

The move delays restrictions on hazardous emissions, provoking backlash from clean air advocates. Legal experts question the use of interim rulemaking, which bypasses public input. Community health activists argue the change prioritises corporate profits over public wellbeing. The EPA claims industry compliance would have been too difficult, but critics cite environmental & legal concerns.
