The CFACT<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By Jeff Reynolds<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bill would codify limits on the Environmental Protection Agency, unleashing American power and allowing you to buy the car you want.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

U.S. Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) introduced the End EPA Abuse Act of 2026<\/a> on June 25 to prevent the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) from issuing regulations that exceed congressional intent under the Clean Air Act. The legislation, cosponsored by Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-WY), targets repeated EPA overreach that abuses the Clean Air Act to reshape the economy rather than solely protect air quality. Rep. Andrew Clyde (R-GA) introduced a companion bill in the House.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sen. Lee called the bill a move away from \u201cclimate psychosis.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A coalition of dozens of groups has signed on to a letter of support for the End EPA Abuse Act.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taking a Stand for American Power<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe EPA has overstepped its authority as far as possible to put America\u2019s energy producers in a chokehold,\u201d Lee said in a statement. \u201cThey\u2019ve exploited any power they can grab to push Biden and Obama\u2019s climate psychosis at the expense of our energy security. They make up and enforce regulations to suffocate America\u2019s energy producers and devastate major sectors of our economy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lee says the End EPA Abuse Act will put policymaking authority back in the hands of Congress\u2014not to the \u201cleftwing bureaucracy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sen. Lummis decried the EPA\u2019s years-long assault on domestic energy, while also reminding Americans who should actually hold the power. \u201cThe EPA has spent years using the Clean Air Act as a backdoor tool to wage war on fossil fuels and strip Americans of their energy choices,\u201d Lummis said. \u201cThe End EPA Abuse Act puts Congress back in the driver\u2019s seat where we belong.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both senators remind us that the ultimate authority should <\/em>reside in elected officials, not lifetime bureaucrats unaccountable to the voters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rep. Clyde, introducing the House companion, said, \u201cUnder the Biden Administration, the EPA increasingly treated the Clean Air Act as a blank check to push de facto<\/em> electric vehicle mandates, jeopardize reliable energy sources, and impose costly regulations on American consumers and businesses.\u201d Clyde framed this bill as pushback against a radical agenda to undermine American energy production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Putting the Bureaucrats Back in their Box<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The bill adds explicit limitations on the EPA Administrator\u2019s regulatory authority. It prohibits<\/a> any regulation or waiver (including California waivers) that would:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
