EPA’s new greenhouse gas regulation targets more than 600 coal-fired plants across the country, forcing hundreds of those plants to close. The increase in electricity costs due to these closures will seriously damage the economic viability of farms, ranches, rural businesses and individual citizens. Elderly and low wage earners, those who are least able to afford an increase in their monthly utility bill, will shoulder a much higher burden due to this proposal. The National Grange is working with America’s Electric Cooperatives to advocate against the EPAs new rule. Tell EPA that its new rule on existing power plants will jeopardize the economy, cause energy prices to skyrocket, kill jobs and penalize low income Americans.
