AN ACT CONCERNING EMISSION STANDARDS FOR VEHICLES SOLD IN THE STATE.

HB 5672 would require vehicles sold in the state to meet U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) emission standards instead of California's standards. The bill repeals the current law mandating compliance with California's typically stricter vehicle emission rules. This change directly affects vehicle manufacturers and dealers selling new vehicles in the state, as they must now align with EPA standards. The policy shifts the state's regulatory approach to match federal emission requirements rather than California's.
