Republican Senators recklessly voted to overturn states' life-saving zero-emissions cars standards. But states still hold their authority under the Clean Air Act to pass more protective tailpipe standards – and they should move quickly to shape new standards after today’s vote.

What if we told you that most air regulators are fighting air pollution with one hand tied behind their back, unnecessarily? Indirect source rules, ISRs, are robust and legally sound but underutilized regulations. Read the report:

In California, AB 914 clarifies that ISRs may be adopted statewide, not only at the local air district level, and provides that CARB has authority to regulate indirect source emissions caused by stationary sources through the adoption of ISRs, but would not directly adopt any ISRs itself.

Two waivers granted! Six more to go. It's time for EPA to grant ALL eight waivers before 2025, including ACF & In-Use Locomotives. People's lives depend on it.
