This differs from the estimates referred to earlier (600,000 jobs lost), which are calculated from the Heritage Foundation Energy Model using employment figures from the Current Population Survey. These new estimates are calculated from the same Heritage Foundation Energy Model but use employment data from the American Community Survey in order to illustrate the impact in various congressional districts. Other coal dependent states that are not heavy manufacturers will also be significantly impacted by the EPA’s regulations. For instance, although West Virginia and Wyoming are relatively low on manufacturing jobs lost, Heritage estimates these will be the two hardest hit states in terms of overall job losses per 100,000 employed. For a more detailed explanation of the overall job losses and methodology, see ibid.

I’d love to see the number of jobs the EPA has cost since its unholy birth.

Wait a minute!

Regulations can harm manufacturing?

[Art in Idaho]

What a disgrace. 10,000 people controlling 315 million. . Hmm. . "When in the course of human events. . ."

[Senator_Blutarski]

Please note the Wisconsin job losses. Anyone think this might be revenge against Scott Walker?

EPA’s Climate Regulations Will Have Already Seriously Harmed American Manufacturing and Driven Much of It Off Shore

WILL?

EPA’s Climate Regulations Will Harm American Manufacturing

Worse than the elimination of tariffs has?

Just what Illinois needs. The GOP needs a “Let America Work” campaign.
