Tell the Trump administration to stop its rollback of the clean car standards!

The Trump administration just announced it would roll back the Obama administration’s clean car standards that sought to double fuel economy by 2025. Not only that, it plans to challenge the right of states like California to set stronger standards to protect communities from toxic vehicle emissions. Today, 13 states and the District of Columbia follow these standards, resulting in cleaner air for their 113 million residents.

The transportation sector recently surpassed the power sector as the largest source of carbon pollution. That makes reducing pollution from motor vehicles a key component of improving air quality and addressing climate change.

The Obama administration put cleaner cars in the fast lane, now the Trump administration is trying to slam on the brakes.

The Trump administration’s proposal to roll back clean car standards will mean more toxic smog in our air and more pain at the pump. Automakers worked with the previous administration to agree on a set of standards to double fuel economy standards by 2025. Implementing these standards will improve air quality, benefit public health, and help save people money at the pump. Please reconsider rolling back these important standards.

Additionally, I am disturbed that the Trump administration will attempt to revoke California’s authority to set its own fuel efficiency standards. Today, 13 states and the District of Columbia follow these standards, resulting in cleaner air for their 113 million residents. Revoking this authority will mean more cities choked with smog, more severe health impacts, and diminished air quality. Ronald Reagan fought for this authority, and it’s more important than ever that states be allowed to set more stringent standards that make sense for their communities.

It’s time to put cleaner cars in the fast lane. Stop the roll back of the clean car standards.
