Choice in Automobile Retail Sales Act of 2023 is a House bill in Congress.

Who this affects: This bill mainly affects the EPA, automakers, car dealers, and people buying new vehicles. It changes what the EPA can require when it writes pollution rules for new cars and trucks. It could also affect which gas, hybrid, electric, and other vehicles automakers offer and dealers can sell.

Why this matters: Vehicle pollution rules can shape what cars and trucks companies build and what buyers can find at dealerships. This bill would limit how far the EPA can use those rules to push the market toward certain engine types or technologies. It could give consumers and dealers more protection against forced shifts in vehicle supply. It could also reduce the EPA’s flexibility to cut pollution from transportation.

Key provisions in H.R. 4468

• The EPA could not move ahead with one named 2023 vehicle pollution rule. The rule is “Multi-Pollutant Emissions Standards for Model Years 2027 and Later Light-Duty and Medium-Duty Vehicles,” listed at 88 Fed. Reg. 29184 on May 5, 2023.
• The bill changes the Clean Air Act section for new vehicle pollution standards. The new language would cover rules proposed or issued on or after January 1, 2021.
• The EPA could not require automakers to use one specific technology in a covered emissions rule.
• The EPA could not issue a covered emissions rule that makes new vehicles less available because of their engine type.
• The same “no required technology” and “no engine-type limit” rules would apply to new EPA rules and updates to existing rules. This would fall under the Clean Air Act section for new vehicle emission standards.
