- Trump administration is rolling out lower fuel economy standards for cars and light trucks, replacing Biden-era rules with weaker mpg targets
- Trump confirmed he personally approved the rollback of fuel economy standards, with multiple outlets framing it as cutting mileage targets for new vehicles
