25 States Sue Biden Administration Over New EPA Vehicle Emissions Rules

The lawsuit, led by Kentucky and West Virginia, challenges the legality of EPA's stringent emissions standards aimed at boosting electric vehicle sales.

  • A coalition of 25 state attorneys general, led by Kentucky’s Russell Coleman, has filed a lawsuit against the Biden administration’s new EPA vehicle emissions rules.
  • The regulations require a 49% reduction in fleetwide tailpipe emissions by 2032, promoting a shift towards electric vehicles.
  • Critics argue the rules exceed EPA's authority, could harm the auto industry, and impose unrealistic costs on consumers.
  • The lawsuit reflects widespread resistance to what is seen as a federal overreach into the auto market and a push for a 'radical green agenda.'
  • States involved include Kentucky, West Virginia, Texas, Florida, and Ohio among others.
