Not only have the states never delegated to the feds via the Constitution the specific power to legislatively protect the environment, but the Founding States had made the first numbered clauses in the Constitution, Section 1-3 of Article I to clarify that Congress cannot delegate such powers to nonelected buraucrats even if Congress had such powers.

There! The issue is resolved in a single, constitutionally supported statement which took a minute to make. I wonder how much money was actually spent on legal fees, including taxpayer dollars for the Court to come to roughly the same conclusion?

The real question is the following. If parents were making sure that their children were being taught the federal government’s constitutionally limited powers, what’s the youngest grade level where students would independently come to the same conclusion?

California was the only state to impose enviro regs(air quality) before the feds, which means, that only CA is allowed to set regulations more stringent than the feds.

Governor Reagan was the first gov to impose enviro regs on autos.

So what does the Court not point this out?
