"Major business groups are in the midst of a coordinated, multimillion-dollar effort aimed at sowing opposition to the Obama administration’s smog pollution regulations.
The organizations, led by the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM), have been working for at least two years to discourage the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) from changing its standard for ground-level ozone. NAM and its allies say the rule — to be finalized next month — would dramatically increase their costs and put up new hurdles to expansion.
The main opposition plan involves grassroots advocacy, reaching out directly to the people who would be impacted by the regulation and using their arguments to convince administration officials and lawmakers to act to stop the regulations."
