Saving America every day.

And the pure beauty of this is these were congressional resolutions, they cannot be stopped by a judge or subsequent administrations. The Senate voted today to the resolutions that will undo damaging regulations set by California and prevent the Golden State from setting de facto national vehicle policies.

Trucking Industry Cheers Congress’ Abolishment of California’s EV Mandates

The American Trucking Associations is calling today’s votes in the U.S. Senate nullifying California’s electric vehicle mandates a “monumental victory” for the trucking industry, common sense, and consumers everywhere.

“California is the breeding ground of all bad public policy, and it’s long past time that our nation’s leadership in Washington stop abdicating its responsibility to unelected, cubicle-dwelling bureaucrats in Sacramento who have no understanding of the real world and how it works. Today’s Senate votes send a resounding message nationwide that this is not the United States of California, nor will it ever be,” said ATA President and CEO Chris Spear. “We appreciate the leadership of President Trump, EPA Administration Zeldin, and leaders in Congress who listened to our concerns and acted decisively to reverse these destructive rulemakings, which would have decimated our industry and unleashed a torrent of economic pain on the American families and businesses that we serve.”

Trump declares victory over ‘EV mandates’ during White House ceremony

By: The Detroit News, June 12, 2025:

Washington — President Donald Trump, with significant fanfare, declared victory Thursday morning over “electric vehicle mandates” favored by his predecessor and regulators in California.

“Previous administration gave left-wing radicals dictatorial powers to control the entire car industry,” he said in the White House East Room to a crowd including automotive and fossil fuel executives, plus Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy and Energy Secretary Chris Wright.

“Today we’re saving California from a disaster and our entire country from a disaster,” Trump said.

“We’re doing a product that works, that’s much more efficient, that’s better,” he said.

The president’s comments came during a bill-signing ceremony for legislation blocking a federal waiver from the EPA that allowed California to set influential, nation-leading emissions policies for the auto industry. Its latest rules would have required a ramp-up to 100% electrified new vehicle sales by 2035 in participating states.

“This is what leadership looks like,” U.S. Rep. John James, who was among lawmakers at the signing ceremony, said in a statement. “Washington Elites said it couldn’t be done, but with President Trump’s signature we’ve made good on our promise to protect our jobs, lower prices, defend our supply chains, and keep Democrats’ radical Green New Deal agenda out of the driver’s seat.”“… This is huge a win for the men and women who don’t get days off, who get behind the wheel before sunrise and keep this country running,” James continued. “America’s workers don’t need coastal elites from California to Washington, D.C. telling them how to do their jobs — they need the freedom to compete, the infrastructure to deliver, and the respect they’ve earned. I’m proud that my legislation can deliver just that.”
