GOP urges SCOTUS to reject 'war on American energy' they say would hit families' wallets

Over 70 House Republicans led by Steve Scalise urge the Supreme Court to reject a Colorado county's lawsuit seeking financial liability from oil companies for climate change damages. The lawmakers argue that allowing such state-level lawsuits would undermine federal energy policy and harm the U.S. energy industry. The case, Suncor v. Boulder, will be heard by SCOTUS in 2024, with a ruling expected in 2027.
