https://www.politico.com/news/2025/06/11/trump-biden-obama-climate-regulations-legacy-00395857The U.S. government has long recognized greenhouse gases as a threat, but major rules to address them have failed to stick.

President Donald Trump’s latest climate rollback makes it all but official: The United States is giving up on trying to stop the planet’s warming. In some ways, the effort has barely started. More than 15 years after federal regulators officially recognized that greenhouse gas pollution threatens “current and future generations,” their most ambitious efforts to defuse that threat have been blocked in the courts and by Trump’s rule-slicing buzzsaw.

The Trump administration said Wednesday it intends to roll back first-ever limits set by the Biden administration on four toxic “forever chemicals” contaminating water supplies across the country. Even low levels of the chemicals known as PFAS are linked with cancer, immune system problems, developmental effects and other health ailments. EPA-mandated testing has found them in nearly half of Americans’ drinking water.

The Biden administration is proposing aggressive, first-ever drinking water limits for toxic "forever chemicals" that are thought to be contaminating more than 200 millions Americans' taps. https://t.co/3ekrUnG5TT

👀 The Biden admin is maintaining that it will remove all lead from drinking water systems. The bipartisan infrastructure law money can't do it all. To guarantee removal would take aggressive regulation -- which the Biden admin says it will decide on by end of year

Across our nation, up to 10 million homes receive water through toxic lead pipes. @POTUS and I are taking action to deliver clean drinking water for everyone by removing every lead pipe in America.
