The U.S. EPA is proposing to repeal GHG tailpipe emission standards, which would would (over 25 yrs):
🫰 Force U.S. households to pay $310B more
📉 Cut the GDP by $710 billion
👷‍♀️ Cut an average of 110,000 jobs/year
🏥 Cause 17,000 pollution-related premature deaths

Repealing Federal Tailpipe Emissions Standards Would Raise Household Costs, Harm Public Health, And Damage The Economy • Energy Innovation
If the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) eliminates its tailpipe emissions rules as part of repealing the Endangerment Finding, it would cause massive sticker shock-- Americans would be forced to pay $310 billion more, largely due to higher gasoline prices.

@energyinnovation.org modeled the impacts of the federal gov's attempts to repeal tailpipe emissions standards & the results are devastating for the economy, communities and the air we breathe.

The impact:
- 17K pollution-related premature deaths
- Americans pay $310B more
- 110k jobs annually

EPA's latest repeal will force Americans to pay another $310 billion, this time in higher fuel costs.

That's *on top* of about $820 billion in extra fuel costs Congress piled onto household budgets from the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act"

This administration keeps forcing Americans to pay more.
