Broad coalition embraces Trump fuel efficiency rule, ‘safer’ and cheaper

A broad coalition of free market organizations, anti-tax advocates, and Hispanic groups late Friday embraced the Trump administration’s new vehicle fuel efficiency rule, saying it will save lives and money.

Organized by the American Energy Alliance, over 40 groups signed a letter that defended the Department of Transportation’s and the Environmental Protection Agency’s massive regulatory change that pulled back an Obama-era rule that many said went too far in the name of climate change.
