The Trump administration has requested a federal court to invalidate Vermont's Climate Superfund Act, which requires major polluters to financially compensate for their carbon emissions. The administration claims the law is unconstitutional and seeks to end what it describes as Vermont's 'lawless experiment.' The Climate Superfund Act, enacted in 2024, was designed to hold companies accountable for the climate damages they cause, particularly following significant weather-related destruction in the state. Supporters of the law argue that it is a necessary measure to protect the health and safety of Vermont's residents. The administration's motion follows a lawsuit against Vermont and New York regarding similar laws, highlighting ongoing tensions between state-level climate initiatives and federal regulatory efforts.
