Trump rolls back Biden-era car fuel economy standards

Original: Trump slashes Biden-era fuel economy standards for cars

The Trump administration has moved to slash fuel economy standards for cars put in place under Joe Biden, weakening requirements that automakers improve mileage and cut emissions. The rollback, reported by Politico, is expected to benefit manufacturers who argued the rules were too costly, while drawing criticism from climate advocates who say it will increase pollution and fuel consumption.

Why now: A major policy reversal on emissions rules has immediate implications for automakers, consumers and US climate policy.
