Overview

• 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.
