#Automakers Sue To Kill #Maine’s Hugely Popular ‘#RightToRepair’ #Law
A little over a year ago, Maine residents voted overwhelmingly (83%) to pass a new state right to repair law designed to make #auto repairs easier and more affordable. More specifically, the law requires that automakers standardize on-board diagnostic systems and provide remote access to those systems and mechanical data to consumers and third-party independent repair shops.

For crying out loud, like a drunk toddler & for seemingly no reason at all, #Trump has now reversed his #tariffs on #Canada.
Trump said Thurs that he would allow BOTH #Mexico & Canada to avoid tariffs on most exports to the #US for 1 month, specifically products subject to the #USMCA, the #trade pact he signed in his first term.
The move came less than a day after he granted a 30-day reprieve to #automakers, & hours after announcing a pause on Mexico’s tariffs.

Senate Confirms #LeeZeldin to Head #EPA where hes charged with executing Trump’s orders to dismantle #environmental #regulation
Former NY congressman has little experience in environmental policy. He is expected to follow orders to weaken #climate rules. One rule, finalized last year, would cut #tailpipe #emissions of #greenhousegas, nation’s largest source of planet-warming #pollution, by compelling #automakers to increase sales of hybrid and EV.

“If they want to be tough on #China, don’t punish US #automakers & hard-working Americans by handing our clean-car keys to the Chinese,” said Gina McCarthy, former White House #climate adviser & former head of the #EPA. “The #UnitedStates must continue to show leadership on the international stage if we want to have any say in how trillions of dollars in financial investments, policies & decisions are made.”

U.S. Senators Call Out #AutomotiveExecs for Opposing #RightToRepair

Story by Beverly Braga, December 21, 2024

"The rich get richer, except this time Big Government is fighting for the little guy. Yes, you read that correctly and, no, it makes no sense to me either. Apparently, the exception is right-to-repair laws which are being pushed by—wait for it—a #bipartisan effort that is literally scolding #automakers to quit gatekeeping everything and give consumers access to parts, services, and their own personal vehicle data."

#Automakers globally have been shifting toward #ElectricVehicles in part to comply w/stricter govt limits on #climate-damaging tailpipe #pollution.
But the #Trump recs would allow automakers to produce more #gas-powered vehicles by rolling back #emissions & #fuel-economy standards championed by the #Biden admin. Trump’s team proposes shifting #regulations back to 2019 levels, allowing an avg of ~25% more emissions per vehicle mile than the current 2025 limits & avg fuel economy to be ~15% lower.

The proposals came from a #Trump transition team charged with crafting a strategy for swift implementation of new automotive policies. The team also calls for eliminating the #Biden administration's $7,500 #TaxCredit for consumer #EV purchases…. The policies could strike a blow t o US EV sales & production at a time when many legacy #automakers, including GM & Hyundai, have recently introduced a wider array of #electric offerings to the US market.
