I'd be cautious treating the WSJ editorial page as accurate news coverage.

The WSJ editorial was in response to the flood of mainstream coverage about the administration's announcement yesterday. I knew it was an editorial when I linked it and it should be obvious to anyone who reads it. Is there any question about the facts of the administration's policy statement?

Yes, there is; there wasn't a policy statement. One commissioner (out of five) made an off-the-cuff, vauge mention about regulation (which could easily encompass something like a ventilation or emissions standard for them) in an interview. The usual suspects are now trying to turn it into the next culture war battle.
