Washington – Today, the ���ϲ����� recognized Members of Congress for introducing resolutions in the House of Representatives to immediately revoke the Advanced Clean Trucks and Omnibus NOx waivers granted to California. ��Earlier this week, ���ϲ�����President & CEO Chris Spear sent a letter to Republican leaders in the House and Senate urging them to move this legislation forward quickly.��
��
The measures of disapproval were introduced by Reps. John Joyce (R-Pennsylvania), John James (R-Michigan), Jay Obernolte (R-California), Russ Fulcher (R-Idaho), Doug LaMalfa (R-California), Kevin Kiley (R-California), and Lisa McClain (R-Michigan). ��

“The trucking industry commends our congressional champions for introducing these resolutions, which would take the regulatory keys away from unelected CARB bureaucrats whose mad dash to zero poses a grave threat to the supply chain and our economy,” Spear said. ��“The patchwork of unachievable EV mandates enabled by EPA’s waivers to California threatened to significantly raise costs for American consumers without delivering the promised environmental benefits.”
��
“Thanks to the leadership of these lawmakers, Congress can restore EPA’s authority to set commonsense, achievable national standards that promote innovation and put us back on the path to lowering emissions while accounting for the operational realities of our essential industry,” Spear continued. ��“We look forward to working with Members of Congress in both chambers to pass these resolutions expeditiously and send them to President Trump’s desk where they can be signed into law.”
��
Trucks today produce 99% fewer nitrogen oxide and particulate matter emissions than those on the road decades ago, and new trucks cut carbon emissions by over 40 percent compared to a truck manufactured in 2010. ��As a result, 60 of today’s trucks emit what just one truck did in 1988. ��
��
This progress was made possible through a collaborative relationship between the Environmental Protection Agency and the trucking industry. ��By repealing California’s waivers, EPA will be empowered to develop realistic, technology-neutral federal emissions standards that will benefit our environment, preserve and create jobs, and set the trucking industry and supply chain up for success.
