The House of Representatives has approved a joint resolution that would do away with the Environmental Protection Agency’s tailpipe emissions standards, which Republicans have criticized as amounting to an electric vehicle mandate.

The GOP-controlled House approved a resolution Friday that would overturn a new Biden administration rule on automobile emissions.

The U.S. House advanced an effort on Friday to repeal an EPA rule that would effectively push gas-powered vehicles out of the U.S. marketplace.

The U.S. House of Representatives has voted in favor of H.J. Res 136 to repeal a rule from the Environmental Protection Agency to set vehicle emission caps.
