Trump has General Motors on his side in emissions fightFox News, Oct 29, 2019
The battle over auto emissions standards has split the industry. General Motors has joined Fiat Chrysler and Toyota in saying on Monday that they are siding with the Trump administration in taking on California over fuel economy standards, according to the New York Times.
The other side includes Honda and Ford after reaching a deal to follow California’s stricter rules.
At the heart of the dispute is the Trump administration’s rollbacks of regulations designed to fight climate change. California wants to go its own way, while the Trump administration wants to weaken the standards set during the Obama administration.
The argument presented by the automakers siding with Trump is that the federal government and not California has the authority in the matter, according to The Times.
