Texas Railroad Commissioner Praises Trump Fuel Economy Rollback
Original: Texas Railroad Commissioner Praises Trump’s Rollback of Fuel Economy Standards
A Texas Railroad Commissioner has publicly praised President Trump's rollback of federal fuel economy standards, a move that loosens mileage requirements for automakers. The rollback is welcomed by oil and gas interests in Texas, while environmental and consumer groups argue it will increase emissions and fuel costs. The commissioner's endorsement underscores Texas officials' support for policies favoring the energy industry.
Why now: The Trump administration's easing of fuel economy rules is a contested economic and environmental policy that Texas energy officials are publicly championing.
