Preserving Choice in Vehicle Purchases Act is a House bill in Congress.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects states that want stricter vehicle pollution rules than the federal government allows. It also affects car buyers, automakers, and the Environmental Protection Agency. In real life, it could change whether a state can push the market away from new gas-powered vehicles.

Why this matters: This bill matters because some states use vehicle rules to cut air pollution faster than federal rules require. The bill would limit that power when a state rule restricts new gas- or diesel-powered vehicles. It could slow some state-led electric vehicle plans. It could also give car companies and buyers a more uniform national rule. The final impact would depend on which state rules the Environmental Protection Agency reviews and cancels.

Key provisions in H.R. 1435

The Environmental Protection Agency could not approve some stricter state vehicle rules. The ban applies when a state standard directly or indirectly limits the sale or use of new vehicles with gas or diesel engines.
The bill locks in one definition of internal combustion engines, meaning engines that burn fuel like gas or diesel. It uses the definition in 40 C.F.R. § 63.9375 as that rule read on January 1, 2023.
States could not change their vehicle standards later and treat those changes as already approved. The Environmental Protection Agency could not automatically cover those amended rules under older Clean Air Act waivers.
The Environmental Protection Agency would have to review some recent state waivers. It must revoke any waiver granted from January 1, 2022, through enactment if it violates the new protection for gas or diesel engines.
The bill targets state vehicle rules that could reduce or end new gas- or diesel-powered vehicle sales. That includes phaseout plans for new vehicles with internal combustion engines.
