The Chamber strongly supports continued environmental improvements, including sensible approaches to reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
We believe that economic growth and environmental progress are not mutually exclusive goals.
In fact, the United States is the only major country that has actually and substantially reduced its C02 emissions while continuing to grow our economy.
To make further progress, we should be guided by what has already worked: gains in efficiency, new technologies, and the increased use of natural gas and renewable fuels.
The Environmental Affairs and Sustainability team promotes an enabling environment to ensure that the business community has the flexibility and policy tools it needs to succeed
TO THE MEMBERS OF THE U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES:
"Sue and Settle" refers to when a federal agency agrees to a settlement agreement, in a lawsuit from special interest groups, to create priorities and rules outside of the normal rulemaking process. The agency intentionally relinquishes statutory discretion by committing to timelines and priorities that often realign agency duties. These settlement agreements are negotiated behind closed doors with no participation from the public or affected parties.
