Congressman Williams Introduces Two Bills to Restore Economic Freedom, Regulatory Certainty, and Energy Market Integrity

WASHINGTON, D.C. - Today, Congressman Roger Williams (TX-25), introduced the Fuel Emissions Freedom Act and the Stop the Subsidized Green Energy Scam Act. These bills will restore regulatory sanity, protect taxpayers, and defend free-market principles in both the automotive and energy sectors.

“These bills are about economic liberty, energy independence, and relief from government overreach,” said Congressman Williams. “As we usher in the Golden Age of America, we must return power to the American people, not bureaucrats or special interests. Whether it’s letting manufacturers innovate or ending taxpayer-funded green giveaways, it’s time to cater to Main Street and let the market, not Washington, decide what powers America’s future.”

Background:

Fuel Emissions Freedom Act

• Overturns all federal and state fuel emissions regulations, including California’s special authority under the Clean Air Act.
• Eliminates EPA vehicle emission limits, CAFE standards, and state-imposed tailpipe emissions rules.
• Restores regulatory certainty to the U.S. automotive sector and empowers manufacturers to innovate freely without costly compliance barriers.
• Trump signed H.J.Res. 87 into law, overturning California’s biased waivers that allow them to create their own emissions regulations.
• The Fuel Emissions Freedom Act will finish the job.

Cosponsors: Representative Brandon Gill and Representative Michael Cloud.
