纽约州旨在向化石燃料生产商征收750亿美元用于气候变化损害赔偿的法律被联邦法官驳回。1联邦地区法院法官布伦达·桑内斯周一作出裁决，认定该法超越州权范围，侵犯联邦权利。1
这项法律由民主党州长凯西·霍楚尔2024年签署，规定企业每年缴纳30亿美元，为期25年。1法官在判决中指出，该法涉及外国化石燃料生产商，违反外交原则，属于违宪行为。1特朗普政府司法部支持该裁决，声称纽约州的法律违反联邦法律，主张保护美国能源免受州权过度干预。1
挑战该法的一方包括美国商会、22个共和党州总检察长和美国环保署。1
A federal judge has invalidated New York's landmark climate legislation aimed at holding fossil-fuel producers financially accountable for climate-related damages.1 The law, signed by Democratic Governor Kathy Hochul in 2024, would have required companies to pay $3 billion annually over 25 years, totaling $75 billion.1 U.S. District Judge Brenda Sannes ruled Monday that the state law exceeded New York's authority and violated federal constitutional principles, particularly regarding energy policy and foreign affairs.1
Judge Sannes determined that the law's provisions targeting foreign fossil-fuel producers violated diplomatic principles and constituted an unconstitutional overreach into federal jurisdiction.1 The Trump administration's Department of Justice backed the ruling, arguing that New York's legislation infringed on federal authority over energy matters during an energy emergency.1 The legal challenge was mounted by multiple opponents, including the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, attorneys general from 22 Republican-led states, and the Environmental Protection Agency.1
