Chicago will host the nation’s only hearing where the U.S. EPA will seek public comment on the administration’s plan to repeal the Obama-era Clean Power Plan and replace it with Trump’s Dirty Power Plan. Trump’s “plan” has no concrete emission reduction goals or standards that would actually require dirty power plants to cut down on dangerous pollution.
Join Sierra Club, partner organizations, and concerned residents from across the country and rally for climate justice and a clean energy future for Illinois!
The hearing will be from 9am – 8pm at 77 W Jackson
