SACRAMENTO ~ Today, California defended its clean car standards from a challenge led by Republicans and the fossil fuel industry in the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. Governor Gavin Newsom stated that the Republicans of today reject the idea that pollution is bad and clean air is good, trying to use the courts to legislate their backwards ideology. Attorney General Rob Bonta added that vehicle pollution continues to be a pressing problem in California and they are fighting to preserve progress made and their ability to keep moving forward.
California Air Resources Board (CARB) Chair Liane Randolph said Congress has long preserved California's ability to regulate vehicle emissions within the state and provide solutions to communities that for decades have endured some of the worst pollution in the nation. The case centers on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) decision last year to allow California to continue implementing its clean car rules via a waiver under the Clean Air Act, which California is standing alongside with Biden-Harris Administration to defend federal clean car standards.
