Judge Bars EPA Bid to Send Calif. Emissions Rules to Congress

 A U.S. judge in Washington late on Wednesday blocked the U.S. Environmental Protection ‌Agency from ​sending to the Republican-controlled Congress ⁠landmark California vehicle ​emissions rules for a potential ⁠repeal.

The four waivers sent by the EPA ‌to Congress ​for review granted ‌California authority to ‌enact its own emission standards for cars and ⁠trucks as ‌well ⁠as lawn and ⁠garden equipment.

⁠The Trump administration has ‌mounted a multi-pronged effort to deny California ‌the ​ability to ‌require cleaner vehicles and more electric ​vehicles.
