About This Bill

Latest Action · October 19, 2023
Read twice and referred to the Committee on Environment and Public Works.
The Choice in Automobile Retail Sales Act of 2023 would prevent the Environmental Protection Agency from finalizing or enforcing a proposed rule that sets stricter emissions standards for cars and light trucks starting in 2027. The bill also amends the Clean Air Act to prohibit the EPA from requiring specific technologies in vehicles or limiting the availability of new cars based on engine type, essentially blocking regulations that could favor electric vehicles over gas-powered ones. The EPA would be required to revise its existing tailpipe emissions regulations within 24 months to comply with these new restrictions. The legislation primarily affects automakers and consumers by preserving options for traditional combustion engine vehicles in the marketplace. This bill represents an effort to block the Biden administration's electric vehicle push and maintain the viability of conventional gas-powered cars in future model years.
