By SRH, Judge James Hendrix said the Biden administration lacked authority under law to impose the gas emissions rule. The Biden administration’s rule requiring states to measure and report greenhouse gas emissions from vehicles on the national highway system was struck down by a judge in Texas on March 28. The rule, issued by the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Highway Administration in 2023, aimed to reduce carbon emissions by half by 2030.

Judge James Hendrix ruled in favor of Texas, stating that the administration overstepped its legal bounds. Please Help Donate GiveSendGo https://www.givesendgo.com/wwwHNewsWire Be a part of it.
