California's 2035 Gas Car Ban
The Biden administration has approved a California waiver that allows the state to implement a ban on new gasoline-powered car sales by 2035. This decision affects California and 11 other states and represents a significant climate policy initiative. However, there are expectations that the incoming Trump administration may reverse this decision, which could lead to a potential legal battle.
The waiver is based on the Clean Air Act of 1970, which allows California to set stricter emission standards than those mandated by the federal government. Automakers have expressed concerns regarding the feasibility of meeting California's stringent regulations and the potential impact on the market. Meanwhile, opponents of the policy argue that it restricts consumer choice.
