Supreme Court Grants Fuel Producers Standing to Challenge EPA Approval of California's Electric Vehicle Mandate

The Supreme Court reversed the D.C. Circuit's standing dismissal in a case where gasoline and liquid fuel producers challenged EPA's approval of California regulations requiring automakers to manufacture more electric vehicles under Clean Air Act Section 209. The seven-justice majority held that producers satisfied Article III standing requirements without needing to submit expert economist affidavits or automaker testimony to establish causation and redressability.
