President Trump revoked an executive order from the Obama administration that had required states and municipalities to work on restoring the Chesapeake Bay for the past 17 years. Trump's action came through a new executive order, which the White House justified by saying the previous order allowed for unnecessary taxes. The revocation removes the framework that had been mandating Bay cleanup efforts.
