Bill Summary
To preserve appropriate and achievable Federal standards for greenhouse gas emissions and corporate average fuel economy for cars and light trucks through model year 2025, and for other purposes. This bill provides statutory authority for rules concerning corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) standards for automobiles with model years 2021 through 2025 and greenhouse gas emission standards for light-duty vehicles (e.g., trucks) with model years 2017 through 2025. Specifically, the bill provides statutory authority for rules issued in 2012 by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) on the CAFE standards and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on the greenhouse gas emission standards. NHTSA and the EPA may not take actions that could reduce the stringency of the standards.
AI Summary
This bill provides statutory authority for maintaining the existing greenhouse gas emissions and corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) standards for cars and light trucks through model year 2025. Specifically, it requires the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to prescribe CAFE standards at least as stringent as the 2012 final rule, and it requires the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to affirm the greenhouse gas emission standards for model years 2017 through 2025 that were established in the 2012 final rule. The bill also prohibits NHTSA and the EPA from taking actions that could reduce the stringency of these standards.
