Trump Administration Revokes California’s Tailpipe Waiver

The World Resources Institute expresses opposition to the Trump Administration's revocation of California's tailpipe waiver, noting that tailpipe pollution is the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions in the United States and that the move affects California and 13 other states.

• The Trump Administration announced the revocation of California's tailpipe waiver under the Clean Air Act, a move that the WRI notes affects California and 13 other states that adopt California's clean air rules.
• Tailpipe pollution is identified as the primary source of greenhouse gas emissions within the United States.
• California's Attorney General has declared an intention to legally challenge the administration's action in court.
