Grothman's legislation would give states greater flexibility by eliminating these Clean Air Act requirements, which impose unnecessary costs and administrative burdens on drivers, businesses, and state governments.

Grothman promoted his State Emissions Authority Act as legislation that would eliminate federal Clean Air Act vehicle emissions testing mandates and return flexibility and authority to states.

Grothman’s press releases page says his State Emissions Authority Act was considered by the House Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on June 4, 2026, and describes it as legislation to remove burdensome federal vehicle emissions testing requirements and restore state authority.

Grothman took a concrete legislative step on the emissions-testing issue in his current term, but the action was committee consideration rather than enactment, so the promise is only partially advanced.
