On Tuesday, Mark Uyeda, Acting Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), issued a statement signaling potential updates to the SEC’s position in the ongoing legal challenges to its climate disclosure rule. As previously reported, the SEC stayed its climate disclosure rule last year pending the outcome of the related consolidated litigation before the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals.
