WASHINGTON — The GOP-controlled House approved a resolution Friday that would overturn a new Biden administration rule on automobile emissions that Republicans say would force Americans to buy unaffordable electric vehicles they don't want.
"The EPA’s latest tailpipe emissions rule is not really about reducing air pollution. It's about forcing Americans to drive electric vehicles,'' said Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, R-Washington, the chair of the House Energy and Commerce Committee. The GOP action “puts the profits of corporate polluters over the health and safety of the American people,'' Pallone said, adding that resolution is "ripped right out of Trump’s extreme Project 2025 playbook.
Republican Rep. John James of Michigan, who sponsored the resolution, said the “out-of-touch regulation” would "crater the Michigan auto industry and decimate our middle-class and most vulnerable'' citizens. “We’ll meet my goal for 2030 and race forward in the years ahead,″ Biden said when the rule was issued in March.The families of the six workers who died in the March collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore filed lawsuits on Friday against the owner and operator of the cargo ship that struck the bridge.
