共和党领导的美国24个州对拜登政府提起诉讼，原因是美国环保局新规定对烟尘污染制定了更严格的标准。 24 Republican-led US states filed a lawsuit against the Biden administration over a new EPA rule setting stricter standards for soot pollution. 各州认为该规定将增加成本，阻碍新的制造工厂和基础设施建设，并使美国 30% 的县不遵守规定。 States argue the rule will raise costs, hinder new manufacturing plants and infrastructure, and place 30% of US counties out of compliance. EPA 估计，到 2032 年，该规则将创造 460 亿美元的健康效益，防止 80 万例哮喘发作和 4,500 例过早死亡。 EPA estimates the rule will create $46bn in health benefits by 2032, preventing 800,000 asthma attacks and 4,500 premature deaths.
