The U.S. Justice Department said on Friday it has sued California in a bid to end the state’s enforcement of emissions standards for trucks.
The DOJ said it filed two complaints this week in federal courts against the California Air Resources Board on the state’s enforcement of preempted emissions standards through its so-called “Clean Truck Partnership” with heavy-duty truck and engine manufacturers.
“These actions advance President Donald J. Trump’s commitment to end the electric vehicle (EV) mandate, level the regulatory playing field, and promote consumer choice in motor vehicles,” it said in a statement.
