Providing congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "California State Motor Vehicle Pollution Control Standards; Notice of Decision Granting a Waiver of Clean Air Act Preemption for California's 2009 and Subsequent Model Year Greenhouse Gas Emission Standards for New Motor Vehicles".

Summary

The resolution seeks to overturn the EPA rule that granted California a waiver from the Clean Air Act’s preemption, letting the state set its own greenhouse‑gas limits for new cars. If adopted, it would block California from enforcing its stricter emissions standards and keep vehicle regulations under federal control. The measure reflects congressional disagreement with the EPA’s decision.
