The US Senate Votes to Block California Rule Banning Sale of Gas-Powered Cars by 2035

The Senate voted Thursday to block California's plan to stop the sale of gas-powered vehicles by 2035. The president is expected to sign the bill when it reaches his desk. Two other measures that undercut the state's ability to regulate tail-pipe emissions have been approved by Congress and are also on the way to the White House. California governor Gavin Newsom said the state would sue to keep the rules in place.
