The Clean Air Act has always recognized California\u2019s authority, which is based on the state\u2019s historic leadership in setting vehicle standards and the need to address its serious pollution problems.<\/p>\n<p>California has used this authority to set pathbreaking standards like its Zero Emission Vehicle standards, which 11 other states have adopted. Most recently, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-autos-emissions-usa\/nevada-to-join-other-states-in-adopting-california-zero-emission-vehicle-rules-idUSKBN23U005\">Nevada<\/a> has joined New Mexico and Minnesota in announcing its plans to adopt these standards. This is just one recent example of states and businesses leading the way to lower transportation emissions. Others include California\u2019s ongoing work to develop <a href=\"https:\/\/ww3.arb.ca.gov\/board\/books\/2020\/052820\/20-5-3pres.pdf\">Advanced Clean Car 2.0<\/a> standards, its recently-finalized <a href=\"https:\/\/ww2.arb.ca.gov\/resources\/fact-sheets\/advanced-clean-trucks-fact-sheet\">Advanced Clean Trucks<\/a> standards (which will lead to electrification of all new medium- and heavy-duty trucks in the state by 2045), a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/media\/new-multi-state-agreement-zero-emission-trucks-and-buses-major-step-clean-air\">clean trucks agreement<\/a> by 15 states representing 35% of the national truck fleet (which aims to electrify 30% of new trucks in these states by 2030 and all of the states\u2019 new trucks by 2050), and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lyft.com\/blog\/posts\/leading-the-transition-to-zero-emissions\">Lyft\u2019s announcement<\/a> that, in partnership with EDF, it will reach 100% electric vehicles by 2030. Defending California\u2019s authority will be key in maintaining this momentum.<\/p>\n<p>EDF and our allies have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/media\/edf-allies-sue-epa-over-attempt-revoke-state-clean-cars-authority\">brought a legal challenge<\/a> to the Trump administration\u2019s attack on state authority. We recently <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/sites\/default\/files\/57_NGOs_and_States_Brief_CADC_06-29-20.pdf\">filed briefs<\/a> arguing that the administration\u2019s reckless departure from longstanding precedent is arbitrary, capricious, and contrary to applicable law. The dozen <em>amicus <\/em>briefs added further breadth and depth to our coalition\u2019s legal support for state authority.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Defending the Clean Car Standards from a rollback that harms public health, the economy, and the environment<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On April 30, the Trump administration finalized a rollback that would eviscerate the national Clean Car Standards, cutting the required annual reduction in fleetwide climate pollution from about 5% to just 1.5%. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/sites\/default\/files\/Cars_Final_Rollback_Factsheet.pdf\">Analysis by EDF<\/a>\u00a0shows that the rollback will result in an additional 1.5 billion tons of climate pollution, cause more than 18,000 premature deaths, and cost Americans $244 billion at the gas pump. The Trump administration\u2019s own analysis shows that the rollback will cut as many as 140,000 job-years from the automotive sector (<em>see page 24,988 of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.govinfo.gov\/content\/pkg\/FR-2020-04-30\/pdf\/2020-06967.pdf\">Final Rule<\/a><\/em>). That\u2019s the amount of work that would employ 140,000 people full-time for one year.<\/p>\n<p>Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel told the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2020\/05\/27\/climate\/lawsuit-fuel-economy-climate.html\">New York Times<\/a> that the rollback will be especially harmful to auto industry jobs in her state, so it\u2019s no surprise that many automakers disagree with the administration\u2019s approach. Ford, Honda, Volkswagen, BMW, and Rolls Royce have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/sites\/default\/files\/content\/17_Ford_et_al_Motion_to_Intervene_CADC_06-29-20_.pdf\">declined to defend the rollback<\/a> in court and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.freep.com\/story\/money\/cars\/2020\/05\/27\/michigan-donald-trump-mileage-standards-epa-mpg\/5270782002\/\">reaffirmed<\/a> their voluntary frameworks with California. And electric vehicle manufacturers Tesla and Rivian are <a href=\"https:\/\/lwncat.com\/Membership.html\">among the businesses<\/a> challenging the rollback.<\/p>\n<p>The rollback is based on massive technical and economic errors and fails to meet core statutory requirements to reduce pollution and maximize fuel economy. In fact, by the Trump administration\u2019s own analysis, the rollback will result in net harm to Americans.<\/p>\n<p>Protective clean car standards deliver critical climate, health, and consumer benefits, and EDF \u2013 along with our many partners and allies \u2013 will continue working to defend them.<\/p>\n<p>You can find all the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/climate\/clean-car-standards-legal-resources\">legal briefs<\/a> in the cases on our website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Correction: This blog previously referred to a Blue Green Alliance estimate that the Clean Cars rollback would cost 200,000 jobs.
