How each member voted
The Senate roll call, passed the Senate, May 22, 2025
Providing congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to "California State Motor Vehicle and Engine Pollution Control Standards; Heavy-Duty Vehicle and Engine Emission Warranty and Maintenance Provisions; Advanced Clean Trucks; Zero Emission Airport Shuttle; Zero-Emission Power Train Certification; Waiver of Preemption; Notice of Decision".
Using the Congressional Review Act, this resolution voids the Environmental Protection Agency's decision granting California a Clean Air Act waiver of preemption for its Advanced Clean Trucks and related heavy-duty vehicle standards, published at 88 Fed. Reg. 20688 on April 6, 2023. The waiver had let California enforce its own zero-emission truck sales requirements and associated heavy-duty engine warranty, maintenance, and certification provisions. Once this resolution takes effect, that EPA action has no force or effect. Under the Congressional Review Act, the agency may not reissue it in substantially the same form without new authorization from Congress.
Each stop is a step the bill’s own record states, with the date it happened. A ring is a step not yet taken. A bill becomes law when the President signs it or Congress overrides a veto.
At least 25 organizations named this measure in a lobbying filing. A floor, not a total: they were counted by the client name on 60 quarterly reports filed by 5 lobbying firms and by 21 organizations lobbying for themselves in 2025 Q1, 2025 Q2, 2025 Q3, 2025 Q4, 2026 Q1, 2026 Q2 and 2026 Q3. An organization that lobbied this measure without naming it is not counted here.
The filings record that lobbying was reported on the measure. The form has no per-bill dollar figure and no field for a position, so nothing here says how much was spent or which side an organization took.
5 of them, in no ranking: Fedex Corporation; American Trucking Associations; Environmental Law and Policy Center; Koch Government Affairs, LLC; Phillips 66. Listed as filed, in the order the filings were read, and 20 others are not shown. These are not the largest, the earliest or the most active: we keep five names per measure, and the filings give no ranking.
From the LD-2 quarterly lobbying filings published at lda.gov by the Senate Office of Public Records. Read for 2025 Q1, 2025 Q2, 2025 Q3, 2025 Q4, 2026 Q1, 2026 Q2 and 2026 Q3. Our copy holds 24 fewer filings for 2025 Q1, 39 fewer filings for 2025 Q2, 42 fewer filings for 2025 Q3, 33 fewer filings for 2025 Q4, 28 fewer filings for 2026 Q1, 48 fewer filings for 2026 Q2 and 218 fewer filings for 2026 Q3 than the Senate's register counts, so those quarters are the filings we could read rather than every one filed. 2026 Q4 is still inside its filing window, so that quarter is only the filings posted so far.
