What it does
This joint resolution seeks to disapprove a specific Environmental Protection Agency rule concerning California’s motor vehicle pollution control standards and its Advanced Clean Car Program, particularly regarding the reconsideration of a prior withdrawal of a waiver of federal preemption. If enacted, the resolution would nullify the EPA rule, meaning it would have no legal force or effect. The measure affects California’s ability to set stricter vehicle emissions standards than federal rules and could impact automakers’ compliance obligations nationwide. It was introduced in the House and referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce for further consideration.
