Sen. Pete Ricketts (R-NE) and seven Republican cosponsors introduced this joint resolution to block an Environmental Protection Agency rule that approved California's Advanced Clean Car Program and zero emission vehicle requirements for vehicles built in 2017 and earlier model years. The resolution uses the congressional disapproval process, which if passed would nullify the EPA's decision to grant California a waiver from federal Clean Air Act preemption standards.
