A proposed reversal of federal fuel efficiency standards could lead to higher gas prices and more pollution in Pennsylvania, where many residents already struggle with transportation costs. The rollback would allow automakers to produce vehicles with lower mileage, potentially increasing emissions and health risks in urban and industrial areas. Critics argue the change prioritizes short-term industry benefits over long-term environmental and economic concerns for drivers. The decision may also impact Pennsylvania’s efforts to meet clean air regulations and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
