There's no reason for the Trump administration to take away protections set by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Fuel efficiency standards would be weakened and gas prices would go up.

Forcing aging coal plants slated for closure to keep operating harms our progress toward building more clean energy and harms ratepayers. I’m pleased a federal court agreed that the Department of Energy overstepped its authority and recognized the states' control over power generation.
