Stein, S., Squire, C., and Zhao, A (2025). “A Review of Federal Climate Policy Rollbacks in the United States: Trends, Sectoral Changes, and Implications for Policymakers.” Center for Global Sustainability, University of Maryland. 17 pp.
Since January 2025, the current administration has rolled back many federal climate policies that a previous Center for Global Sustainability (CGS) report found could cost the country $1.1 trillion in GDP by 2035. CGS’s new analysis reviews the over 250 federal climate policy rollbacks executed since January, outlining key regulatory trends, sector-specific impacts, and the implications for state and local climate leadership.
