In the third and final episode on Trump's "America First Energy Plan" hosts Jeannie Oliver and Mason Overstreet examine the wide variety of regulations that protect our water, air, land and public health.

Vermont Law School Professor Pat Parenteau and Boston College Law School Professor Zygmunt Plater discuss the legal actions fighting regulatory rollbacks as well as the effect these decisions have on the economy and public health.
