U.S. Representative Mike Bost (IL-12) today released the following statement applauding EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt's decision to repeal the Obama Administration's power plant regulations.

"The Obama Administration's addiction to over-regulation threatened to wipe out hundreds of jobs in Southern Illinois and many thousands nationwide," said Rep. Bost. "The impact of such a serious hit to the coal industry led to unpredictable home energy prices for hardworking families already struggling to get ahead. I applaud the administration's decision to secure the reliability and resiliency of America's electrical grid."
