Trump is about to kill California's EV rules

President Donald Trump plans to sign a trio of resolutions Thursday to revoke California’s nation-leading vehicle emissions standards.

Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.), author of a resolution to nix the state’s electric vehicle sales mandate via the Congressional Review Act, and Rep. Kevin Kiley (R-Calif.) confirmed that the White House has scheduled the signings at 11 a.m. on Thursday.

Trump’s signature will finalize his administration’s months-long effort to thwart California’s authority to set stricter electrification rules for passenger vehicles and commercial trucks, along with higher standards for heavy-duty diesel engines.

Republican lawmakers promised to quickly roll back Biden-era EPA waivers that give California the power to enforce its rules after Administrator Lee Zeldin announced in February that his agency had sent them for review. That move opened a window of 60 days in session for Congress to vote on resolutions and avoid the Senate filibuster.

This done by troglodytes who are so stupid they watch Fox News and don’t know or
more likely don’t care that Fox is outright lying in its outputs.

Btw no way Krasnov won legitimately.

Don’t let these asshats dictate to them how to run their state!

Especially someone from WV. Coal from Appalachia is the past. Clean energy is the future!
