Thank you to Rep. Obernolte!
Good news below! BNSF Railway City of Barstow PASSED BY THE HOUSE: Rep. Obernolte’s Amendment to Prevent the EPA from Approving California’s Electric Freight Train Rule WASHINGTON?– U.S. Congressman Jay?Obernolte’s?(CA-23) amendment #75 passed the U.S. House of Representatives by voice vote and was included in the Fiscal Year 2025 Appropriations bill for the Departments of the Interior and the Environment. Rep. Obernolte’s amendment would prevent the Environmental Protection Agency from issuing a waiver to the California Air Resources Board (CARB) for its In-Use Locomotive Regulation. The regulation mandates the use of zero-emission locomotives in California despite the fact that the zero-emission locomotives required to comply with the rule do not even exist. Rep. Obernolte’s amendment prohibits any EPA funds from being used to grant the waiver required for CARB’s job-killing electric locomotive rule. “Freight rail is crucial to the nation's economy, environment, and infrastructure. It efficiently transports goods over long distances, reduces highway congestion, and greatly lowers greenhouse gas emissions compared to truck transportation,”?said Rep. Obernolte.?“While I share the broader goal of reducing emissions, CARB’s misguided rule would not accomplish it. Instead, it would have a disastrous impact on interstate commerce, increasing the cost of rail transport, reducing jobs, and raising prices for Californians. This amendment is a win for our High Desert community and will help create jobs at BNSF’s Barstow International Gateway.”
