Supreme Court curbs Clean Water Act in blow to Biden

The Supreme Court issued a ruling Thursday that significantly constrained the Environmental Protection Agency’s ability to regulate wetlands under the Clean Water Act. The decision is a major blow to the Biden administration’s efforts to protect millions of acres of wetlands while delivering a victory to multiple powerful industries, including mining, oil and gas and homebuilding. POLITICO’s Annie Snider breaks down the details of the ruling. Plus, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration projects a "near normal" Atlantic hurricane season, but officials cautioned other factors could complicate that forecast.    Annie Snider covers water issues for POLITICO Pro.  Josh Siegel is an energy reporter for POLITICO.  Nirmal Mulaikal is a POLITICO audio host-producer.
