Job Creators Network to Sue Biden Admin over Emissions Regulations

by Ben Whedon

 

The Job Creators Network Foundation Legal Action Fund plans to sue the Biden administration over proposed vehicle emissions standards that the White House unveiled this month.

The administration asserts that the regulations would prevent the emission of roughly 10 billion tons of CO2, lower consumer costs, and accelerate a transition to clean energy-reliant vehicles.

“Cars and truck manufacturers have made clear that the future of transportation is electric. The market is moving,” reads a White House fact sheet. “The United States can seize this moment to secure American leadership in the global race to a clean transportation future, or let competitors like China out-compete us for the jobs and investments building that future.”

But JCN President and CEO Alfredo Ortiz took exception to the rules, announcing that his organization would challenge the proposals once they have been finalized.

“The Biden administration’s new emissions regulations are extreme, not technically feasible, will cost jobs, and increase transportation and energy costs. They’re even bad for the environment,” he said. “When finalized, Job Creators Network Foundation’s Legal Action Fund plans to file suit to block this executive overreach that runs afoul of the Supreme Court’s ‘major questions doctrine.'”

“This precedent, set last year, holds that only Congress has the power to make sweeping changes to the American economy – such as forcing the electrification of the auto industry in nine years – when existing federal statutes aren’t clear,” he continued. “JCNF’s LAF will stand up for ordinary Americans and small businesses by suing to block this latest example of illegal executive overreach.”

The Biden administration has pursued a regulatory agenda with a mind toward climate initiatives and the pursuit of clean energy. Among its most significant efforts was a purported plan to bar the use of gas stoves, though that ban never materialized.
