How to Comment on EPA DOT Fuel Efficiency Standards change. Trump wants to have USA make worse cars and trucks.

https://www.epa.gov/newsreleases/us-epa-and-dot-propose-fuel-economy-standards-my-2021-2026-vehicles "the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) released a notice of proposed rulemaking, the Safer Affordable Fuel-Efficient (SAFE) Vehicles Rule for Model Years 2021-2026 Passenger Cars and Light Trucks (SAFE Vehicles Rule), to correct the national automobile fuel economy and greenhouse gas emissions standards to give the American people greater access to safer, more affordable vehicles that are cleaner for the environment." - SOUNDS ABSURD TO ME. How does wasting gas make a car safer or cleaner? 

What really is happening is that Corporate Profits will Increase if Car Companies do not have to comply with tough fuel efficiency standards. People will be harmed because we will have to pay more for gas, we will have to import more oil from Saudi Arabia and we will pollute more causing climate change. More cars and Trucks will be imported from Fuel efficient factories in Europe and Asia... 

Public Comments: The EPA docket will open for submittal of public comments upon publication of the proposed rule in the Federal Register. Please submit comments at https://www.regulations.gov/comment?D=EPA-HQ-OAR-2018-0283-0001

Here is what I said: 

Let's NOT change fuel efficiency standards because it is good for PEOPLE to get better gas mileage. 

It would cost less money at the pump to buy less gas. It would put less pollution in the air. It would keep American Cars competitive in comparison to fuel efficient foreign cars and trucks. We would import less oil from the Middle East... 


In general, Trump's ideas about modifying fuel efficiency standards are insane. They are LYING.
