“Agreement, contract, partnership, mandate — whatever California wants to call it, this unlawful action attempts to undermine federal law,” Acting Assistant Attorney General Adam Gustafson released in a statement Friday. “President Donald Trump and Congress have invalidated the Clean Air Act waivers that were the basis for California’s actions. CARB [California Air Resources Board] must respect the democratic process and stop enforcing unlawful standards.”

On his first day in office, President Donald Trump signed an executive order eliminating California’s overbearing and costly regulations, which the Biden administration implemented nationwide. 

Further, California’s regulations have been rejected by Congress.

“In June 2025, President Trump signed into law congressional resolutions under the Congressional Review Act, invalidating EPA’s preemption waivers for CARB’s heavy-duty truck regulations. Without these waivers, the Clean Air Act prohibits CARB from attempting to enforce those regulations. Yet, in an affront to the rule of law, CARB seeks to circumvent that prohibition by enforcing the preempted emissions standards through the Clean Truck Partnership,” DOJ says.
