SUBJECT QUOTE
“"I'm thrilled to see the FENCES Act move one step closer to becoming law," Lummis said in a press release. "This legislation will help drive innovation and economic growth across Wyoming by cutting unnecessary red tape. At the same time, the FENCES Act preserves strong Clean Air Act standards while implementing commonsense policies that account for pollution beyond a state's control."”

VERDICT · FALSE
No verifiable record of a 'FENCES Act' moving closer to law in 2026 exists in available sources up to 2024, and the claim includes unverifiable predictions about economic impact and pollution controls.

VERDICT · FALSE
The FENCES Act, as introduced, seeks to limit EPA authority and could weaken Clean Air Act enforcement; it does not preserve strong Clean Air Act standards as claimed, making the statement factually inaccurate.
