LftS: The MATS Rule

Thanks for listening.
​On December 27, 2018, during the middle of the government shutdown that continues, the EPA issued a proposed rule change that would revise the Mercury and Air Toxics Standards, aka the MATS rule.  This rule put in place by the Clean Air Act of 2018 required air emissions from various places to be monitor and to have harmful substances removed from their exhaust.  During this episode of Lessons from the Screen, we are going to dive into what that all means and how it affects us as well as what we can do about it.  

​EPA will accept comments on the proposed rule for 60 days after publication in the Federal Register. Comments should be identified by Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-0794 and may be submitted by one of the following methods.

LftS: First Step Act of 2018

Thanks for listening.
​On the 21st of December 2018, the First Step Act or S.756 was passed into law.  It was hailed as a landmark passage, one that was desperately needed and that would change the American Justice System for the better making it more equitable and more humane.  While it is just a first step as the name implies, it was treated with such fanfare and such excitement that many thought this was the law to end the discriminatory practices of the Justice System.  We took a few weeks, let that fanfare die down, and studied the text of the law to determine if it really was worth all the excitement.  On this Episode of Lessons from the Screen, we are going to be diving into the First Step Act of 2018.
