17 States Sue Over Plan to Scrap Car Emissions Standards
SACRAMENTO, Calif.—California and 16 other U.S. states are suing the Trump administration over its plans to scrap standards for how much greenhouse gases vehicles can emit.
California Gov. Jerry Brown and Attorney General Xavier Becerra announced the lawsuit Tuesday.
It takes aim at a plan by the Environmental Protection Agency to scrap standards for vehicles manufactured between 2022 and 2025.
The standards would have required vehicles to get 36 miles per gallon (58 kilometers per gallon) by 2025, about 10 miles (16 kilometers) over the existing standard.
EPA administrator Scott Pruitt says the standards are not appropriate and need revision.
Joining California are Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Virginia and the District of Columbia.
