加州总检察长 Bonta 领衔九州联名信：能源许可改革草案将削弱各州环保权限
Oakland——加州总检察长办公室（California Department of Justice）10月22日通报，加州总检察长 Rob Bonta 与马萨诸塞州总检察长 Andrea Joy Campbell、华盛顿州总检察长 Nick Brown 共同领衔，联合亚利桑那、特拉华、伊利诺伊、佛蒙特、俄勒冈、缅因六州总检察长，向美国参议院环境与公共工程委员会及能源与自然资源委员会发出联名信，就拟议中的《2026年两党美国可负担与就业法案》草案表达关切。
该草案由两党议员提出，是一项旨在降低能源成本、创造就业、推广清洁能源的综合法案，内容涉及能源许可与基础设施审批改革。联名信肯定法案的目标，但指出草案部分条款如不修改，将不必要地侵入各州权利、损害各州重要自然资源，并削弱各州依据《清洁水法》与《国家历史保护法》现有的权限；各州例行参与的《国家环境政策法》与《濒危物种法》程序也将受影响。
Bonta 在通报中表示：「建设清洁能源未来是一项团队工作，需要所有人——共和党人与民主党人——都走下场边。法案的目标是崇高的，但按目前的草案，它将通过削减各州守护本地资源与社区的权限而损害进展。」联名信称，各州将继续与立法者就法案细节沟通，提出调整意见，以确保适当的环境与公共卫生保护。（GSM 据加州总检察长办公室 10 月 22 日通报报道）
California AG Bonta Co-Leads Nine-State Letter Warning Permitting Reform Draft Would Weaken State Environmental Authority
OAKLAND — California Attorney General Rob Bonta has co-led a multistate coalition in a letter to the U.S. Senate Environment and Public Works Committee and the Energy and Natural Resources Committee expressing substantial concerns about the draft Bipartisan American Affordability and Jobs Act of 2026, the California Department of Justice said on October 22. Bonta co-led the letter with Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell and Washington Attorney General Nick Brown, joined by the attorneys general of Arizona, Delaware, Illinois, Vermont, Oregon and Maine.
The draft bill, introduced by a bipartisan group of lawmakers, is a wide-ranging package aimed at lowering energy costs, creating jobs and promoting clean energy, and would transform energy permitting and infrastructure approvals. The letter commends those goals but says some provisions, without amendment, would intrude on states' rights, harm critical resources, and undermine the significant authority states hold under the Clean Water Act and the National Historic Preservation Act; state participation in National Environmental Policy Act and Endangered Species Act processes would also be affected.
"Building a clean energy future is a team effort that requires everyone — Republican and Democrat — to step off the sidelines. While the goals of the bill are noble, the legislation as drafted would undermine progress by reducing state authority to safeguard our resources and communities," Bonta said. The coalition said it will continue engaging with lawmakers on the bill's details to ensure appropriate environmental and public health protections.
