President Donald Trump on Thursday announced that he's signing a trio of resolutions reversing California's 2035 ban on the sale of new gas-powered cars. 

The move was announced earlier in the week by Rep. Kevin Kiley (R-CA), who wrote on X that Trump would sign his resolution "to reverse California’s absurd ban on gas-powered cars."

The resolutions, which were co-authored by Sen. Shelley Moore Capito (R-WV), finalize Trump's months-long effort to rescind California's authority to sect stricter electrification rules for passenger vehicles and commercial trucks, along with higher standards for heavy-duty diesel engines. 

During Trump's first term, his EPA revoked a version of California's vehicle emissions rules through an 18-month regulatory process, however Republicans' May vote to expedite the rollback through Congress marked the first time that California's waiver approvals have been considered subject to the Congressional Review Act (CRA) since President Bill Clinton signed the law in 1996. 

California Attorney General Rob Bonta has vowed to fight the decision, saying in May that he plans to sue once Trump signs the resolutions. 

We're guessing Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) is secretly relieved...
