Mike Pence: Won't comply with EPA rules on toxic mercury

[Editorial--Fort Wayne Gazette, 7/6/15]: "Indiana was one of almost two dozen states that brought the suit that forced the Environmental Protection Agency back to the drawing board on air pollution regulations related to mercury and other toxic emissions. Pence has put Indiana in the forefront of every recent fight to defend the coal industry from what the state considers undue interference from pollution regulators."

[The Hill, 7/14/14]: "Indiana Gov. Mike Pence is calling on his former colleagues in Congress to defund proposed Environmental Protection Agency regulations at the heart of President Obama's climate change initiative. 'Using the power of the purse, Congress has the ability to block or prevent implementation of the EPA's proposed regulations on new and existing power plants,' Pence wrote. 'I respectfully urge you to support legislative efforts to do so."
