Hi @gilbert, It looks like Wisconsin's state legislature is trying hard to deregulate! See this NPR article: https://www.wpr.org/wisconsin-lawmakers-consider-eliminating-state-air-pollution-rules.

There has also been a lot of turbulence in Michigan about deregulating for several years. This article has a quick rundown of some of it: https://greatlakesecho.org/2017/10/24/proposed-bill-would-prevent-creation-of-rules-more-strict-than-federal-regulations/.
