Bill Summary
A bill to amend the Energy Policy Act of 2005 to reauthorize the diesel emissions reduction program.
AI Summary
This bill seeks to extend the Diesel Emissions Reduction Act, which was originally part of the Energy Policy Act of 2005, by updating the program's authorization period from 2024 to 2029. The bill, officially titled the "Diesel Emissions Reduction Act of 2025", is a straightforward legislative amendment that effectively prolongs the existing diesel emissions reduction program for an additional five years. By extending the authorization period, the legislation ensures continued support for efforts to reduce harmful emissions from diesel engines, which can have significant environmental and public health benefits. The amendment is technical in nature, simply changing a single year in the existing law to allow the program to continue its work of mitigating diesel-related pollution for an additional five-year period.
