CAPITO, CRAMER LEAD EFFORT TO OVERTURN FEDERAL HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION'S ILLEGAL EMISSIONS MANDATE ON STATE DOTS

Press Release

"Once again, the Biden administration is blatantly neglecting the letter of a bipartisan law passed by Congress and signed by the president himself. FHWA's final rule limits the flexibility of states to advance their own transportation investment priorities, jeopardizing critical investments, jobs, and economic growth across the country. When we negotiated the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, we specifically left out the authority FHWA is attempting to exercise with its greenhouse gas emissions performance measure requirement. As we've done before, I am committed to working with my Senate and House colleagues to hold the Biden administration accountable."
