    Trump moves to scrap EPA climate finding and unwind federal vehicle emissions rules

    Appearing alongside EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin, Trump said the action would end federal emissions rules for vehicles and engines covering model years 2012–2027 and beyond

    U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday his administration has withdrawn the Environmental Protection Agency’s 2009 “endangerment finding,” a determination that has long provided the legal foundation for regulating greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act. The White House and the EPA framed the move as a major shift in federal climate policy and a broad deregulatory push affecting the auto sector.
