  • The Trump administration's plan to quickly overturn California's EV rules could have a parliamentarian problem.

The article from Politico's California Climate newsletter discusses the ongoing debate over California's authority to set its own vehicle emissions standards, which has been a point of contention with the Trump administration. Despite the Trump administration's efforts to revoke California's waivers under the Clean Air Act, there is optimism that these waivers will be upheld. The Biden administration has shown support for California's stricter emissions standards, and there is a strong legal and political pushback against the revocation. The article highlights that the courts have been skeptical of the Trump administration's arguments, and with the change in administration, there is hope that California's ability to enforce its own emissions standards will be preserved. This is seen as crucial for the state's climate goals and its role in leading national efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
