Bill Summary
A bill to repeal a rule of the Environmental Protection Agency with respect to multi-pollutant emissions standards, to amend the Clean Air Act to ensure that tailpipe regulations do not limit the availability of new motor vehicles, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill, called the "Choice in Automobile Retail Sales Act of 2025", aims to repeal a specific Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rule regarding multi-pollutant emissions standards for light-duty and medium-duty vehicles issued in April 2024, and modify the Clean Air Act to limit the EPA's regulatory power over vehicle emissions. Specifically, the bill nullifies the EPA's recent emissions rule for vehicles in model years 2027 and later, and amends the Clean Air Act to prohibit the EPA from mandating specific technologies or creating regulations that would limit the availability of new motor vehicles based on engine type. The bill requires the EPA to revise its regulations within 24 months to comply with these new restrictions, effectively preventing the agency from implementing strict emissions standards that could potentially reduce consumer choices in vehicle purchasing or force manufacturers to adopt particular technologies. The goal appears to be maintaining a broad range of vehicle options and preventing potentially restrictive environmental regulations on the automotive industry.
