[edit] Senate career

Muskie's career in the U.S. Senate deserves a section. He is particularly remembered as architect of the Clean Air Act of 1970 (PL 91-604), which created the Environmental Protection Agency and led to both near-term and prolonged reductions in automobile and power-plant pollution. See Muskie's recollection of the 1970 and subsequent events in 1990, when major revisions strengthening that landmakr law were under consideration, at www.cleanairtrust.org/nepa2cercla.html. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.44.187.100 (talk) 13:34, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
