A free market business group whose legal arm is led by two-time former U.S. Attorney General William Barr has filed a federal lawsuit against California over its climate regulations for phasing out diesel-powered heavy-duty vehicles.

The American Free Enterprise Chamber of Commerce – which was launched in 2022 to fight government regulations – filed the lawsuit this week in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California, naming California Attorney General Rob Bonta and California Air Resources Board (CARB) Executive Officer Steven Cliff as defendants.

"California’s attempt to effectively abolish the internal combustion engine by forcing Americans to buy EVs is not only illegal but a threat to our American free enterprise," Barr, who chairs the advisory board at AmFree Chamber's Center for Legal Action, told Fox News Digital. "This mandate is unlikely to produce any net reduction in carbon emissions, and even if it does, any benefit will be negligible in comparison to the massive costs these mandates impose on our economy and individual American families."

I love my EV. It’s like an oversized golf cart that hauls ass. I charge it nightly and ride it in the carpool lane without the stickers because everyone thinks I belong there. Thanks California liberals!

Frankly this one seems like a bad look coincidence story the other side is always hoping to find.  

The real story is how his good buddy owns a bunch of Paneras and therefore is exempt from the new law because it bakes bread.

I think that's all included with the, fuck that guy. Everything that shithead legislated during the pandemic had no affect where he lived. No school closures, mandatory masking,  restaurant shut downs. Nothing that would inconvenience Mr French Laundry Governor.  Fuck that guy.

Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day. Teach a man how to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.

California loves to give out fish to all these druggy thieves.

I have very little faith that California ever does the right thing.

You guys didn't think the State wouldn't skew everything to monopolies? California has New York wondering how they got knocked off the top of Mount Corruption.

Must demonstrate Highly Qualified status using the following education requirements:

- High School Diploma or equivalent AND

(a) Two years of higher education study (48 semester units or 72 quarter units), OR
(b) Possess an Associate's or higher degree, OR
(c) Successful completion of a Fontana Unified School District-approved Paraprofessional Certificate and/or Paraprofessional Assessment Exam. (See www.fusd.net for details)

So when you see a walkout by teachers aids and other education jobs that are not competitive wages to unskilled labor, don't blame them, don't call them greedy. They are working harder and falling behind those that have done nothing to improve their employment status.

Silly Jay you know politicians don't give a shit about anyone's health.  They got away with taxing cigarettes and sodas because it's low hanging fruit.  If anything Pelosi...I mean her husband probably shorted fast food stocks.

Maybe teachers and educators should be paid what they're worth then. Problem solved.
