We know that this is a durable decision that I signed yesterday after Loper Bright and West Virginia versus EPA and Michigan versus EPA.

If you want the law to say that EPA should be regulating the heck out of greenhouse gas emissions, that is a topic for a debate and a vote in Congress, not a rogue, unelected bureaucrat at a federal agency.

Yes, a new vehicle is going to cost over twenty four hundred dollars less than

on average now that this decision has been signed.

And on top of it all, as an added bonus, we got rid of the Obama switch, the climate participation trophy for manufacturers of adding that annoying start-stop feature in vehicles that make your car die at red light and stop sign.

That off-cycle, all off-cycle credits are gone.

Immediately.

Everything takes time.

Yeah, the president came in January of 2025.

This was a day one executive order.

So as far as signaling to auto manufacturers...

that the president was focused on it.

That was a day one message that was sent.

Uh, we announced on March 12th, uh, that we were going to be pursuing this effort.

We did the public comment.

We followed all of the rules of the administrator procedures act.

I read the final decision before signing it yesterday.

And this thing is airtight.

You know, I referenced Loper bright a second ago is the Supreme court case overturning the Chevron doctrine.

When the 2009 endangerment finding was done, the Obama administration, the EPA administrator, was creatively interpreting the Clean Air Act to say, well, if it doesn't say I can't, I guess that means we can.
