Breaking News: U.S. House Schedules Vote on Bill to Stop EPA’s Tailpipe Mandate
DON’T DELAY! Please contact lawmakers to request their support for this legislation:
Overview: The U.S. House of Representatives announced that it will vote on the SAN-supported “Choice in Automobile Retail Sales (CARS) Act” (H.R. 4468) the week of December 4th. The bill would prohibit the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) from finalizing new emissions standards that would limit consumer choice and push the auto industry toward electric vehicles. The CARS Act also prevents future EPA motor vehicle emissions regulations that would mandate certain technologies or limit the availability of vehicles based on engine type.
If passed into law, the legislation would stop regulatory overreach by the EPA, allowing consumers to have the freedom to decide what car works best for them and their families and preventing auto manufacturers from being forced to meet unrealistic mandates driven by the most aggressive light-duty emissions regulations in U.S. history.
The House Energy & Commerce Committee passed H.R. 4468 in July. Send a letter now telling your U.S. Representative to vote to support the “CARS Act.”
