Bill 119 HR 346, also known as the "Clean Air Act Amendment to Prevent Elimination of Internal Combustion Engines," aims to make changes to the Clean Air Act in order to prevent the elimination of the sale of internal combustion engines.
The bill seeks to address concerns about the potential impact on the automotive industry and consumers if internal combustion engines were to be phased out entirely. It aims to ensure that consumers continue to have the option to purchase vehicles with internal combustion engines, while also promoting the development and adoption of cleaner and more efficient technologies.
Specifically, the bill includes provisions that would prohibit any federal agency from implementing regulations that would ban the sale of vehicles with internal combustion engines. It also calls for the establishment of a task force to study the potential impacts of phasing out internal combustion engines and to make recommendations for how to balance environmental concerns with the needs of the automotive industry and consumers.
Overall, the goal of Bill 119 HR 346 is to strike a balance between promoting cleaner air and protecting consumer choice and the automotive industry. It reflects the ongoing debate about the future of transportation and the role of internal combustion engines in a rapidly changing technological landscape.
