Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy on Tuesday began the process of rolling back fuel economy standards set by the Biden administration that he said “put coercive pressure” on automakers to phase out gasoline-powered vehicles.

In his first act, President Donald Trump's Transportation Secretary, Sean Duffy, ordered a review of Biden's fuel economy standards.

Sean Duffy was sworn in as the new Secretary of the U.S. Department of Transportation on Tuesday and one of his first acts in office was to sign a memorandum that begins the process of reducing automotive fuel efficiency standards enacted under the Biden administration.
