California Attorney General Rob Bonta said Thursday he will sue the Trump administration to defend the state’s authority to set stricter vehicle emissions standards. The move comes after the Senate voted 51-44 to overturn California’s gas car phase-out plan, approved under the Biden administration. President Trump is expected to sign the resolution. “This federal overreach is politically motivated and endangers Californians,” Bonta said. California’s 2035 gas vehicle ban, backed by 11 other states, has faced strong Republican opposition. Bonta called the Senate’s use of the Congressional Review Act “unprecedented and legally flawed.” The lawsuit will be Bonta’s 23rd against the Trump administration this year
