A group of states have petitioned the Supreme Court to halt the federal government from imposing a plan to reduce emissions state to state, as their appeal is pending in lower courts. They say if the justices don't intervene now, they'll suffer economic harm and potential damage to the power grid.

They say if the justices don’t intervene now, they’ll suffer economic harm and potential damage to the power grid.
They say under the law, states are required to develop plans to reduce emissions and improve air quality from one state to another. So long as a state shows it has reduced emissions, the federal government is supposed to approve the plan, the states argue. Instead, they say the feds rejected plans from nearly two dozen states and moved to impose its own agenda.
Their request was presented to Chief Justice John G . Roberts Jr. who oversees appeals from the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals.
