Support for Clean Vehicle Emissions Standards and States' Air Protection Authority.

This resolution backs current clean vehicle emissions standards, which protect public health from pollution and climate change impacts. These standards help drivers save billions on fuel, enhance energy security, and keep the auto industry competitive. It also reaffirms states' rights to set their own, stricter emissions rules.
Key points
Cleaner Air and Health: Reduced vehicle pollution means fewer heart and lung diseases, and asthma attacks, especially for children and the elderly.
Consumer Savings: By 2030, U.S. consumers could save $130 billion at the gas pump due to more fuel-efficient vehicles.
Economic Benefits: These standards support over 288,000 auto manufacturing jobs and maintain global competitiveness for U.S. car companies.
