Fuel producers just scored a green light from the nation’s highest court to go after California’s aggressive emissions standards. In a 7-2 decision Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that energy companies like Valero’s Diamond Alternative Energy do, in fact, have standing to challenge the EPA’s 2022 decision that allowed California to impose tougher emissions and electric vehicle mandates than the federal baseline.
Justice Brett Kavanaugh, writing for the majority, said plainly: “The government generally may not target a business or industry through stringent and allegedly unlawful regulation, and then evade the resulting lawsuits by claiming that the targets… should be locked out of court as unaffected bystanders.”
