BenjaminHCCarr, Republican #attorneysgeneral from 25 states sued #US #EPA to block rules intended to reduce planet-warming #emissions from #cars and light #trucks and encourage #electricvehicle manufacturing, arguing the agency exceeded its legal authority.
The EPA rules aim to cut fleetwide #tailpipe emissions for cars and light trucks by nearly 50% over 2026 levels in 2032, and reduce #greenhousegas emissions by 7.2 billion tons through 2055. https://www.autoblog.com/2024/04/18/gop-led-states-sue-to-block-u-s-emissions-rules-for-cars-light-trucks/ #climatechange #climatecrisis
