Or more likely, the proponents of this will go the federal courts. Doesn't matter how many states say yes if the feds say no.

- busterarm 6y agoNo... California has its own stricter emissions laws and car manufacturers build to California standards as a result.
- TheCraiggers 6y agoCalifornia is also the worlds fifth largest economy.
- bluGill 6y agoBecause the feds allows California - only California - to set stricter standards than the rest of the country. Several other states (5 last I checked but that was 10 years ago) require California standards for all cars in their state. They don't have the option of creating their own standard as the feds haven't given it to them.
- throwaway0a5e 6y agoMA already ignores the feds on weed and guns with no apparent ill affects. They could probably do it for cars too without much issue.
