The EPA announces plans to revisit Obama-era carbon rules on vehicles and tractors

The move would affect emissions regulations on cars, trucks, and farm equipment.

Lewie Pugh with Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association spoke with RFD-TV’s Tammi Arender about the proposal’s background, the impact on small-business truckers, and the timeline for rollout.
