Alex, I realized I forgot to send this to you yesterday. The following was/is AFPM's statement on the announcement. Thanks, Geoff AFPM welcomes reconsideration of EPA vehicle and manufacturing regs WASHINGTON, D.C. -- American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM) President and CEO Chet Thompson issued the following statement on today's announcements that EPA will re-open and reconsider a number of regulations finalized under the Biden-Harris administration, including vehicle tailpipe standards, the Risk Management Program rule, National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) and air toxic regulations: "The previous administration finalized vehicle rules that no gas, diesel or traditionalhybrid can meet on their own. The standards would ban most new gas-powered cars, harming consumers, the U.S. economy, and our national security. We welcome the news that EPA Administrator Zeldin is reopening these regulations to restore consumer choice and make good on the President's promise to end EV mandates. This is an opportunity to work collaboratively with fuel manufacturers, automakers and consumer groups on revised standards that factor in lifecycle emissions and spur true competition among fuels and powertrains, while protecting our people and the environment. 'We appreciate the administration revisiting rules like the RMP PM2.5 NAAQS and emissions standards for certain chemical manufacturing facilities since each imposes hundreds of million of dollars in compliance costs on U.S. manufacturers without delivering corresponding benefits to consumers, the environment or public health. Sound science and common sense needs to be the basis of every EPA regulation so that U.S, manufacturers are positioned to meet the dual challenge of supplying energy and products to a growing world while also reducing the environmental impact of our operations and products. The previous administration missed this mark all too often." - Chet Thompson, AFPM President and CEO Geoff Moody Senior Vice President Government Relations & Policy American Fue oPetrochemical Manufacturers 1800 M Street NW Suite 900 North Sierra Club FOIA Request: 2025-EPA-04193 ED_018475D_00003259-00001 SC_FOIA_0001126 Washington.
