Plan to override CA gas car ban blocked by Senate parliamentarian

The plan by the Trump administration to challenge California's 2035 ban on gas-powered cars, supported by 12 states and Washington, D. C. , faced a significant obstacle when the Senate's parliamentarian ruled it does not require standard congressional review.

• Senator Alex Padilla emphasized that California was granted the power to set stricter vehicle emissions standards to address its unique air quality issues.

• California’s air regulations existed before the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), allowing it to establish its own standards, with states having the choice between California's rules or a national standard.

• The EPA must approve each new policy California proposes, leading Governor Gavin Newsom to secure waivers from the Biden administration before the Trump administration began.

• The Specialty Equipment Market Association criticized the ruling as bureaucratic overreach, stating it affects 40% of the U. S. population.

• Rep. Kevin Kiley introduced resolutions to overturn what he claims is a ban on gas-powered vehicles.

• The costs of living are affecting the automotive market, with new tariffs pushing car prices up to nearly $50,000.

The future of California's emissions regulations and their impact on the national automotive market remains uncertain amid ongoing legislative efforts and economic factors.
