Not sure why this is being modded down - where I am, every Republican "representative" was fearmongering this, screaming about how "BIDEN IS HIDING SOMETHING," and worse. All they've proven is that the Republicans are gaslighters who can't be trusted.

Your comment is odd. Wasn't the Biden administration hiding something? Everything could have been cleared up if they said we were testing some drones.

From the article: "The Obama administration estimated that it would cost the electric utility industry an estimated $9.6 billion a year to install that mercury control technology, making it the most expensive clean air regulation ever put forth by the federal government. It found that reducing mercury brings up to $6 million annually in health benefits — a high number, but not as high as the cost to industry. However, it further justified the regulation by citing an additional $80 billion in health benefits from the additional reduction in soot and nitrogen oxide that occur as a side effect of controlling mercury. The new proposal directs the E.P.A. to no longer take into account those “co-benefits” when considering the economic impact of a regulation.
