National Vehicle Emissions Uniformity Act of 2025
Generated by VFA SI Solutions
To use the Congressional Review Act to nullify the EPA's waiver allowing California to set its own greenhouse gas emission standards for new motor vehicles, thereby restoring a single national standard.
Bipartisan rationale: Democratic priorities: (1) maintains a strong, science-based national standard that is at least as stringent as California's current standard, avoiding a rollback of climate progress; (2) includes transition assistance for states to adopt the national standard. Republican priorities: (1) eliminates the patchwork of state standards, providing regulatory certainty for automakers and consumers; (2) uses a market-based funding mechanism (surcharge) rather than general revenue; (3) includes a sunset to ensure periodic congressional review.
