Trump administration in 2019 revoked California’s ability to enforce its own tailpipe emissions standards
California Gov. Gavin Newsom plans to meet with the Biden administration this week to discuss zero-emission vehicles and disaster relief – issues that have been targeted in the past by President-elect Donald Trump .
The trip comes days after Newsom called for state lawmakers to convene a special session in December to protect California’s liberal policies ahead of Trump’s return to office in January. “The question is: Has Donald Trump changed the legal playing field so much through the court appointments of his first term that he’ll be able to win on policies in his second term?” he said.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency typically sets standards for emissions from passenger cars, trucks and other vehicles, but California has historically been granted waivers to impose its own, stricter standards. “If Donald Trump follows through with such promises as eliminating the Affordable Care Act, mass deportations, raising tariffs, it is beholden on us to communicate to the American people and convince them how his policies will hurt the economy and their pocketbook,” Cisneros said.
