And so it begins...

[FreeMason]

Obama laying down the environmental hammer...

Higher emissions standards for all states if they so choose. Awesome, can't wait to all be like Cali :toast

The shining jewel atop the ivory tower.:bking

This should make all those States' rights people happy.

[DarkReign]

If I am not mistaken, he is asking the EPA if Cali. can legally change federal emission standards (in that, their law must comply with federal law, not to exceed or minimize).

Right now, Cali exceeds.


This should make all those States' rights people happy.

Exactly. It is a states' rights issue, pure and simple. If Cali wants tougher emissions, so be it, IMO. But Big Brother has other plans.

[Duff McCartney]

I hope the Federal Government increases the emission standards. But if they did that, the Big Three automakers would ask for even more loans.

So does that mean no whining from Wild Cobra?
