Greg Katsas, another Trump nominee, made this pledge, as any nominee should. Recusal is particularly relevant in Rao’s case due to her record of directly working to dismantle regulations that ensure the air we breathe is safe, address global warming and protect consumers.
Rao led efforts to weaken fuel economy standards, which I authored. These regulations were effective and successful. In addition, the country was on track to achieve a fuel economy standard of 54 mpg by 2025.
Additionally, the Clean Power Plan regulation has also been working. Experts say it will prevent up to 1,400 premature deaths annually by 2030 by decreasing particulate matters from emissions linked to heart and lung disease. However, Rao led efforts to repeal it.
Rao has also taken a number of extremely controversial positions. For instance, Rao wrote that if a woman “drinks to the point where she can no longer choose, well, getting to that point was part of her choice” should she become a victim of date rape.
Rao tried to distance herself from her writings and said she “lacked the perspective of how [her articles] might be perceived by others,” but her record shows her views may persist today. In fact, Rao approved repealing protections for survivors of campus sexual violence.
GOOD FOR RAO
