Summary
This joint resolution disapproves an Environmental Protection Agency rule that granted California a waiver to set its own greenhouse gas emission standards for motor vehicles under the Clean Air Act. If passed, the rule would be nullified and have no legal effect. The resolution uses the Congressional Review Act (chapter 8 of title 5, U.S. Code) to overturn the EPA's 2009 decision allowing California to impose stricter vehicle emissions standards than federal requirements.
