The Biden administration proposed a rule that would require the states to track greenhouse gas emissions and set declining emission targets for highway traffic on Thursday.
The Department of Transportation’s Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) announced a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) for states and municipalities to “track and reduce greenhouse gas emissions on their highways.” The proposed plan would establish declining carbon dioxide targets statewide and create a method for the monitoring and reporting of greenhouse gas emissions.
The rule looks to monitor state-by-state emission levels by adding a new greenhouse gas performance management measure to the existing FHWA rules, further track states’ carbon emissions and establish a national framework for this process.
“The Transportation Department’s proposed rule to force states to regulate CO2 emissions from vehicles on highways is preposterous because it has no basis in law,” Myron Ebell, director of the Competitive Enterprise Institute’s Center for Energy and Environment, told the Daily Caller News Foundation.
Under the proposed system, state DOTs and Metropolitan Planning Organizations will be required to set declining targets for on-road emissions generated by vehicles on the National Highway System (NHS).
However, no particular target is being set by this rule, as long as it aligns with the net-zero targets directed by the President in two Executive Orders and agreed upon at the International Leaders Summit on Climate.

They’ve already installed their carbon tax on the down low.
Just sit back and take it. After all, you don’t want to wind up like those Jan 6ers, do you?
The only “greenhouse gas emissions” we need to worry about is all that flatulence coming up from the politicians at the J6 Memorial Battleground on Capitol Hill.
ONLY CONGRESS CAN MAKE A LAW
No more of their chickenchit rules.

We are under the rule of a dictator and a foreign cabal. I never voted for foreign "leaders". And I didn't vote for a dictator.
yep I wonder about that as well.
Isn’t this story a good example, of “rules” being made by a bureaucracy, which is exactly the procedure struck down in the recent West Virginia EPA Supreme Court ruling?
Biden is a bigger fascist pig than Fidel Castro. The far left maggots whining about their precious “democrazy” are building a single branch government here in the United States. They’ve destroyed the Judicial branch loading it down with retarded old liberals. The Legislative Branch doesn’t want to do anything but sit on their asses and listen to RINOs crucify Donald Trump in Da House On Da Hill. That’s communism folks. Eventually, we’re all going to pay for it.
Hey, Bidenhole, keep it up.
Look up what’s happening in Sri Lanka.
I hope they ban everyone in those liberal hell holes from even owning a car…. I want them to stay where they are….. a country boy can survive
Jo Jo has been breathing too many fumes chasing after ice cream trucks. Maybe all his mental issues aren’t just from dementia.
Re-read what you put in bold caps. 🤔😅✌
Mobility of the population has always been a big bugaboo for the controlling left.

I loath weasels.
So,, California like auto smog requirements reducing to zero emissions
In other words
no more gas cars.
Spit.
First, they came for our vehicles due to CO2 emissions then they came for US.
What part of the US Constitution subjugates Americans to International climate policy?
Impeach this deeply flawed demented dictator today.
What we knew from the start of this Climate BS. It is everything to the rats. Power, control and unlimited funding. The mechanism to enforce this would be massive and intrusive. The Auto companies just rolled over while CAFE crippled the cars. Now this.
Actually this one is made by God. You burn a gallon of gasoline [or natural gas or coal in a central power station to power your electric car] and you get stoichiometric quantity of CO2 and of H20. Nothing can be done about it except to go without.
I demand this arschloch stop emitting carbon dioxide by discontinuing to breathe. Do you part f*ckface.
