💩 San Francisco and SCOTUS team up to make you eat shit. The Roberts Court this morning delivered a 5-4 ruling for San Francisco in the city’s fight to kill off regulation of sewage discharge. The Environmental Protection Agency fined San Fran for dumping sewage into the ocean, but the city argued the rules were too vague. The court’s decision prevents the agency from holding a polluter “responsible for the quality of the water in the body of water into which (it) discharges pollutants.” SCOTUS also recently limited EPA’s authority to combat climate change and protect wetlands.
