U.S. Senator Kay R. Hagan released the following statement on the proposed EPA rule.
"I'm talking to business leaders and energy experts in North Carolina about what this proposed rule will mean for our state and our economy. I want to make sure that the proposal does enough to recognize the progress we’ve made reducing carbon emissions and promoting renewable energy. As a state legislator I worked with environmentalists as well as Republicans, businesses and utilities to make North Carolina a national leader in reducing air pollution and promoting renewable energy. As I review this rule I will be looking for a balance similar to the one we struck in North Carolina. North Carolina must not be asked to carry a higher burden simply because we had the foresight and courage to take action. In the coming weeks I will push for a number of changes to the rule that are good for North Carolina.”
