Dems Demand Federal Rule Change Forcing Companies To Follow Californias ‘green Marketing Rules

In a letter last week, Ponta and 15 blue state officials called on Federal Trade Commission Chair Lena Khan to change the agency's policies on the use of environmental marketing, or "green evidence." Making it harder for companies to call themselves "green" is a necessary step in "strengthening consumer protection laws against advertising that exaggerates environmental benefits," or "greenwashing," Ponta said.

Ponta argued that the FTC should follow California's example, "as a leader in reducing waste, enacting the highest environmental laws, and protecting and protecting our precious natural resources."

"The FTC's Green Guides should be updated and strengthened to help individuals and businesses make informed consumer decisions," Ponta said in a statement.

Ponta says he wants to "broaden the scope of the Green Guide to explore how the criteria for each environmental marketing claim can be refined and strengthened so that they are better underpinned by real environmental benefits."

However, Ponta's decision drew criticism from his Republican peers, who said the request fell outside the jurisdiction of prosecutors.

"Attorneys general need to ensure that unelected federal bureaucrats can't enact rules to advance their extreme climate agenda," Missouri Rep. Andrew Bailey told Fox News Digital.

"The FTC should clarify what the FTC means by the term 'recyclable' and what consumers mean by that: if a consumer properly disposes of a 'recyclable' item, it must be recyclable," he told Panta

Bailey said such changes would not only create an additional burden on businesses, but also unconstitutionally bypass Congress.

The FTC did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
