"To comply or not to comply. That’s the question now facing Texas officials regarding the Obama administration’s ambitious Clean Power Plan. The sweeping regulatory initiative, unveiled today in its final form, aims at transforming the nation’s electricity-production system to slash emissions of climate-disrupting air pollution.
