States challenge rule aimed at reducing drifting pollution

Season 2024 Episode 53 | 7m 10s

The Supreme Court heard arguments in a major environmental case over a rule that requires states to stop their air pollution from drifting over to neighboring states.

William Brangham discussed the case with Coral Davenport of The New York Times.
