Summary

The resolution seeks to overturn the EPA's decision that granted California a waiver from the Clean Air Act, allowing its Advanced Clean Car Program and Zero‑Emission Vehicle amendments for model years through 2017. If adopted, the disapproval would nullify that rule and restore federal preemption over those state vehicle‑emissions standards, affecting California's auto‑regulation regime.
