## Summary

**Blocks federal and state fuel-emission and fuel-economy standards nationwide.** The bill repeals the Clean Air Act authority for motor vehicle emissions and the federal fuel-economy chapters in Title 49, nullifies existing federal and state standards, and bars any future fuel-emission standards. - Families and consumers: The bill says eliminating standards will reduce vehicle costs and cut regulatory uncertainty for buyers and owners. - Automakers, suppliers, and workers: It removes the current federal rules automakers follow under Section 202 and Title 49, and aims to ease supply-chain pressures on manufacturers, especially auto suppliers. - States and regulators: States and political subdivisions are barred from enforcing or maintaining any fuel-emission standards, and the bill voids references to those standards across federal laws, orders, rules, and documents.
