Senate will vote on nixing California clean-air waivers, Thune says

Senate Majority Leader John Thune announced that Senate Republicans will take action this week to eliminate California’s vehicle emission waivers, sparking a crucial battle over the Senate’s regulations. Thune stated during a speech on Tuesday that he plans to proceed with three resolutions passed by the House under the Congressional Review Act to revoke EPA waivers, which have allowed California to establish its own emission standards.
