Blocks California from setting its own car pollution rules

This bill would stop California from enforcing its own rules for how much pollution new cars can put out. Currently, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) lets California set its own pollution limits for cars. If passed, this bill would cancel that EPA permission. California's special rules for car pollution would no longer be in effect.

What Would Change

Today, the Environmental Protection Agency allows California to set its own pollution limits for new cars from 2009 onward. If this bill becomes law, that permission would be canceled. California would no longer be able to enforce those specific state-level car pollution rules.

Key Provisions

Blocks the Environmental Protection Agency's rule that allowed California to set its own pollution limits for new cars starting in 2009.
