Ann Carlson in IJR: Trump EPA Says California Must Protect Water Better From Homeless Waste

The Trump administration’s environmental regulator escalated its feud with California on Thursday, accusing the state of violating clean water laws by allowing human waste from homeless residents to enter waterways, according to a letter it sent to the state’s governor.

“These actions are nothing but retaliation for California’s leadership on clean cars and are obviously in response to Trump’s pique over being outmaneuvered by the state,” said Ann Carlson, a professor at the UCLA School of Law.
