Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody is leading a 25-state coalition in suing the Biden administration over its new emissions regulations, which aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from lightweight vehicles and stimulate electric vehicle (EV) sales.

The lawsuit argues that the new emissions rule—proposed on April 23, 2023, finalized on March 20, 2024, and published in the Federal Register on April 18—exceeds the agency’s statutory authority.
