their own policy because the laws were permissive. instead, however, the states that challenged joyce? i m sorry to interrupt you. let s go with pete williams. we have the first decision today from the supreme court. reporter: the first decision is a loss for the biden administration on the question of the clean air act and the ability to combat global warming. the supreme court by a 6-3 vote has ruled that the environmental protection agency does not have broad authority to try to set national energy policy by encouraging industries to switch to cleaner sources of power generation like wind and solar. this is a 6-3 ruling. the supreme court says that congress did not give the epa that broad authority. that the epa s authority is limited more to trying to restrict emissions from specific coal-burning power plants. now, this goes back to a tussle
massive importance. was there too much given to turkey for this? you know, jose, that s a good question, but in the end it was finland and sweden that gave it to turkey, and they decided, okay, we re not going to recognize those kurdish forces which a lot of us regard as liberators and what putin regards as kurdish. i think that was the right call. president biden said he was willing to override the filibuster in order to go back to roe v. wade. we have to codify the law and make sure the filibuster doesn t get in the way of that.
supreme court, when are we going to see the effects of this decision on remain in mexico, the tens of thousands of people that have been living in camps. it s barely life at all. you know, paul was talking about and pete was talking about the conditions that these people have to live under, being subjected to violence and human trafficking and worse. what are the real-term implications of what happened what was announced minutes ago from the supreme court? and then what s happening there in places like the camps that we re seeing now? right. i think two things are clear. the biden administration should move as quick lz states moved on the dobbs ruling to sort of get rid of dispense these courts that were not courts at all. they were tent cities. people didn t have access to justice. they should end the program. the microprotection programs he started was rougher than the first program so he should

trump. the case really presented a number of difficult legal issues about the ability of a new president to set his or her own immigration policy and about what should happen if two different laws seem to be in tension with each other and about the relationship between domestic politics and foreign policy. yeah. and it also has a lot to do with executive orders and how they are carried out and how a new incoming president can remove, reject the former president s executive orders and put one a new one over that. i want to bring in alan orr, immigration attorney. good morning. what is your reaction to this decision? i m excited for the decision. i haven t read all 58 pages yet but i think it landed in the right place. the court could have just decided to punt this and not make a decision, not giving jurisdiction to the courts because it s a federal issue and
