Morrisey critical of Biden emissions goal, mentions possible legal challenge By April 25, 2021 - 2:45 pm CHARLESTON, W.Va. West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey opposes President Joe Biden’s pledge to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and is willing to challenge any related White House action in court. Morrisey spoke Friday against the president’s target to cut emissions in half by 2030, arguing the change would have a negative economic impact and hurt the United States’ international energy standing. “Americans cannot afford such a self-inflicted wound to our economy and our national security,” the attorney general said. Biden announced the goal during last week’s international summit on climate change; the president wants to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least 50% from 2005 levels by the end of the decade. The administration wants to reach this mark through increasing renewable energy use and reducing emissions from fossil fuels.
