According to the statement, in 2010, the Clean Air Act cost $27 billion to implement but saved an estimated $110 billion. Therefore, option B is the correct choice. Option A is incorrect as the Clean Air Act was not repealed in 2010. Option C is also incorrect as the statement does not mention any lost workdays due to the Clean Air Act. Option D is also incorrect as it states that the Congress weakened the Clean Air Act in a new bill, which was vetoed by the President, but there is no mention of such an event in the statement.
