CFC Praises Administration for Finalizing Repeal of Greenhouse Gas Phase 3 Rule

Washington — Today, the Clean Freight Coalition (CFC) applauds President Trump and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin for finalizing the rule to rescind the Greenhouse Gas Phase 3 (GHG3) standards.

Jim Mullen, executive director of the CFC, issued the following statement:

“We thank President Trump and Administrator Zeldin for taking decisive action to finalize the rescission of the GHG3 standards. From the outset, CFC members have expressed serious concerns about the unattainable targets and unrealistic timelines included in GHG3. Left in place, the rule would have imposed significant costs on the trucking industry, disrupted the supply chain, and increased prices for goods for families and businesses across the country.

By rescinding GHG3, the EPA has restored a more balanced and practical regulatory approach that recognizes the operational realities of trucking. The Clean Freight Coalition supports the continued development and deployment of feasible, sustainable technologies that reduce emissions while ensuring the reliable movement of freight. This final action provides the industry with the flexibility and certainty needed to innovate and invest in solutions that are both environmentally responsible and economically viable.”

The Clean Freight Coalition is an alliance of transportation stakeholders committed to a clean energy future for America’s commercial vehicle industry. Participating associations span motor carriers of every size and sector, truck dealers, and truck stop operators. Learn more at www.cleanfreightcoalition.org
