Protect America from CARB Act of 2026

This bill would change the Clean Air Act rules for when the federal government lets a state set its own vehicle or engine emissions standards. Today, the Environmental Protection Agency can grant these waivers or authorizations after notice and a chance for a public hearing. Under this bill, the agency would also need agreement from the Secretaries of Agriculture, Energy, the Interior, and Transportation. The change would apply to waiver and authorization requests submitted on or after the date the bill becomes law.
