Cancel California car GHG waiver
If enacted, this resolution would cancel the EPA rule that granted California a waiver for its 2009 and later greenhouse gas standards for new motor vehicles. That waiver let California and states that follow its rules set stricter GHG limits than federal standards. Without the waiver, EPA's decision would have no legal force and states would lose the legal basis to enforce those standards. Automakers and states that followed California rules would be affected, and the change would take effect upon enactment.
