Protecting Consumer Choice: Preventing Bans on Gas Vehicle Sales

This bill prevents state governments from banning the sale of new vehicles equipped with internal combustion engines (gasoline or diesel cars). It amends the Clean Air Act to prohibit the EPA from approving state regulations that directly or indirectly limit the availability of these traditional vehicles. This ensures that consumers retain the choice to purchase conventional cars, regardless of state policies pushing for an exclusive transition to electric vehicles.
Key points
States are prohibited from enacting standards that limit or eliminate the sale of new internal combustion engine vehicles.
The EPA must revoke recent waivers granted to states that have already implemented such sales restrictions.
Guarantees continued consumer access to purchasing gasoline and diesel-powered vehicles.
