Bill Summary

Providing congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "California State Motor Vehicle and Engine Pollution Control Standards; Heavy-Duty Vehicle and Engine Emission Warranty and Maintenance Provisions; Advanced Clean Trucks; Zero Emission Airport Shuttle; Zero-Emission Power Train Certification; Waiver of Preemption; Notice of Decision".

AI Summary

This resolution provides congressional disapproval of a specific Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rule related to California's motor vehicle and engine pollution control standards. The rule, published in the Federal Register on April 6, 2023, covers various emissions and vehicle standards including provisions for heavy-duty vehicles, advanced clean trucks, zero-emission airport shuttles, and zero-emission power train certification. By passing this resolution, Congress would effectively nullify the EPA rule, preventing it from having any legal force or effect. The resolution follows the Congressional Review Act (Chapter 8 of Title 5, United States Code), which allows Congress to review and potentially overturn federal agency rules within a specified timeframe. The specific rule appears to address California's unique vehicle emissions standards and related waivers, which have historically allowed the state to implement stricter environmental regulations for vehicles than federal standards.
