More than 15 states are following California’s lead for zero vehicle emissions in the coming years, and it is a move that does not sit well with biofuel groups.
The Renewable Fuels Association worries it could leave feedstock producers in the dark and is asking Congress to overturn California’s waiver.
“When you think about a ban on the internal combustion engine in California, it has far-reaching implications because of that agreement amongst those other states. So that’s why this is a very important step, that the Congressional Review Act be applied here to the California waiver,” said Troy Bredenkamp.
Legal experts have argued the Congressional Review Act does not cover the EPA waiver in California, but Bredenkamp says states like California need to be reined back in.
