President Donald Trump on Thursday is signing three congressional resolutions that target California’s statewide efforts to adopt electric vehicles and phase out diesel engines and the sale of gas-powered cars by 2035.

General Motors and Toyota had lobbied against California’s rules.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, during the Biden administration, in December granted California a waiver allowing a mandate that most automotive sales in the state be electric vehicles.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom in May blasted the resolutions undoing the plan.

“Big polluters and the right-wing propaganda machine have succeeded in buying off the Republican Party,” Newsom said.
