The Fair Air Enforcement Act will stop the weaponization of the judicial system by outlawing citizen suits under the Clean Air Act, which has been used by political groups to hurt Americans and their businesses. “Climate extremists are weaponizing our judicial system against Americans and their small businesses,” said Senator Mike Lee. “It’s time for this to stop. Americans deserve the freedom to do as they please with their own property without fearing crushing regulations. The Fair Air Enforcement Act will prevent partisan political groups from abusing the legal process to drag private citizens and industries through frivolous lawsuits.” The Fair Air Enforcement Act: Amends the Clean Air Act to prohibit lawsuits by private citizens alleging violations of its provisions. Requires such enforcement lawsuits to be brought by state governments and relevant agencies. Makes conforming changes to other sections of U.S. code referencing the amended provision.
