On Thursday, the Supreme Court delivered a major setback to President Joe Biden’s ambitious climate goals, ruling in a 6-3 decision that the Environmental Protection Agency does not have the broad authority to curb planet-warming pollution from power plants. POLITICO’s Alex Guillén explains how this ruling creates a significant obstacle to Biden’s hopes of addressing global warming and could raise questions about the authority of other federal agencies.
