America’s Franchised Auto and Truck Dealers Applaud Enactment of Legislation Revoking California’s Ban on Gas Cars and Diesel Trucks

TYSONS, Va. (June 12, 2025)— Today, the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) and American Truck Dealers (ATD) released the following statement applauding President Donald J. Trump’s signing into law the three Congressional Review Act (CRA) resolutions, H.J.Res. 87, H.J.Res. 88 and H.J.Res. 89, that stop California’s sales ban on new gas cars and diesel trucks and its implementation of unrealistic Low NOx rules:

“America’s franchised dealers applaud President Trump for signing bipartisan legislation to stop California regulators from banning sales of new gas vehicles and diesel trucks, which would have begun later this year.  Unless Congress acted, California’s regulations would have reduced consumer choice and raised prices in the showroom for new and used cars.

“Banning gas and hybrid cars is a national issue that should be decided by Congress, not an unelected state agency. Enactment of this legislation ensures that consumers can continue to choose the vehicle that fits their needs.”
