U.S. House Narrowly Votes to Repeal Biden EPA Tailpipe Emissions Rules with H.J. Res. 136
Sep 20, 2024, 03:53 PM
The U.S. House of Representatives has narrowly voted to repeal the Biden administration's EPA tailpipe emissions rules. The resolution, H.J. Res. 136, led by Representative James and supported by HouseGOP, aims to end the EPA's mandate that would require a significant increase in electric vehicle (EV) adoption. The rule, introduced in March, sought to reduce tailpipe emissions by 50% over 2026 levels by 2032. The resolution passed with a vote of 215-191, with eight Democrats supporting the repeal and one Republican opposing it. The Biden administration has pledged to veto the resolution. Critics of the EPA rule argue that it limits consumer choice and imposes unrealistic demands on the auto industry, while supporters believe it is essential for reducing air pollution and combating climate change. Opponents also claim the repeal is influenced by Big Oil and follows Trump’s Project 2025 playbook.
