All of us are going to be suffering more sick days. All of us are going to be plagued by more cancers if we repeal the rules that each State gets to set that has a waiver, wants to join California's healthier air rules. That will be the repercussion. Used to be, there was a bipartisan consensus in favor of cleaner air. It wasn't just Democrats. (12:21–12:45)
