Plain-English Summary
This resolution would block new Environmental Protection Agency rules that set stricter pollution limits for heavy trucks and buses starting in the mid-2020s. If passed, it would prevent these emissions standards from taking effect, allowing truck manufacturers to continue operating under older, less stringent pollution rules. The resolution affects trucking companies, manufacturers, and environmental groups, with implications for air quality and climate goals.
