Ends federal rules requiring emissions controls on vehicles, stopping related penalties and clearing past records.
This bill would end federal rules that require emissions control devices and onboard diagnostic systems on motor vehicles and engines. It would stop the Environmental Protection Agency from enforcing these rules and remove any federal penalties for not having these devices. People who faced past legal trouble for not having these controls would also have their records cleared.
Today, federal laws require vehicles to have emissions control devices, and the Environmental Protection Agency enforces these rules, leading to potential penalties for non-compliance. If this bill passes, federal requirements for these devices would end, the EPA would lose its enforcement power, and no one would face federal penalties for vehicles without them. Past related penalties would also be cleared.
