The move has national implications, but legal and administrative challenges from the incoming Trump administration and industry groups loom.

The Biden administration has granted California a crucial waiver allowing the state to enforce its own stringent vehicle emissions standards, which include a mandate for electric vehicle (EV) sales. This decision reverses a previous move by the Trump administration to block California's authority to set emissions rules stricter than federal standards. The waiver, issued by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), permits California to implement its Advanced Clean Cars II regulations, aiming for 100% zero-emission vehicle sales by 2035. This approval not only supports California's aggressive climate goals but also potentially influences other states to adopt similar standards, significantly impacting the U.S. automotive industry's shift towards electric vehicles. The decision has been met with approval from environmental groups and California officials, while facing criticism from some automakers and Republican lawmakers who argue it could raise vehicle costs and limit consumer choice.
