Newhouse Leads Letter to EPA Urging Commonsense Vehicle Regulations

April 25, 2025

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Rep. Dan Newhouse (WA-04) sent a letter to Enivronmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin supporting the agency's plans to review the previous administration's tailpipe emissions standards. 

"The Biden Administration’s EPA forced unfair and impractical tailpipe emissions standards on the automotive industry that would cripple U.S. manufacturing and make vehicles unaffordable for working Americans," said Rep. Newhouse. "My colleagues and I are standing with Administrator Lee Zeldin and the EPA as they reverse course and implement common-sense standards that support domestic manufacturing and consumer choice in the market." 

Rep. Newhouse was joined by Reps. Cliff Bentz (OR-02), Randy Feenstra (IA-04), Scott Fitzgerald (WI-05), Russ Fulcher (ID-01), Harriet Hageman (WY-At-Large), Tracey Mann (KS-01), Mark Messmer (IN-08), Derek Schmidt (KS-02), Bruce Westerman (AR-04), Rudy Yakym (IN-02), and Ryan Zinke (MT-01) in sending the letter.
