Government Documents on EPA-VW Settlement Highlight Need for Congressional Oversight
Readers of this blog are aware that CEI has long objected to a judicial settlement reached by the Environmental Protection Agency, the Justice Department, and Volkswagen in order to partially resolve Clean Air Act violations related to the automaker’s defeat device scandal. Our objection pertains to a stipulation in the consent decree requiring VW to spend $1.2 billion on an electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure program subject to plenary and pervasive federal oversight. Industrial policy is a bad idea in general, but this is an especially awful example of the practice.

The Sessions Inquisition Comes Up Empty: Trump Unscathed After Attorney General's Testimony
Sessions was passionate in defending himself and his work as the attorney general. It turned out that Comey’s claim last week that he had not received any information from the Justice Department on the details of Sessions’ recusal was false.
