Leadership in action!
Fox News (5/20/25) reports: "Senate Republicans indicated that they intend to vote this week on whether to nix California's emissions waiver from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), which has allowed the blue state to adopt stricter vehicle emissions standards than those imposed at the federal level, including a mandate that all vehicles sold in the state must be electric by 2035... 'Obviously, the Democrats are going to make a lot of noise,' Thune added during the Tuesday afternoon press conference, referring to the party's criticism of Republicans' procedural maneuvering. 'But the truth of the matter is, this has nothing to do with the legislative filibuster,' Thune continued. 'This is the Congress and the United States Senate submitting to the body the question of whether or not the Government Accountability Office, the GAO, ought to be able to determine for us what it is and isn't a rule.'"

"This isn’t just about cars. It’s about sovereignty. It’s about standing up for our workers, our families, and our economy. The Senate must vote to end California’s overreach—because no state, no matter how big or self-important, should be able to dictate how the rest of us live."
– Rep. Josh Williams (R), Ohio House of Representatives, District 44
