Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% : On Wednesday, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced that it was granting a waiver to the California Air Resources Board so that it may begin implementation of new regulations that will, essentially, ban gasoline-powered vehicles in the Golden State by 2035.
40% : "Notably, in granting the Advanced Clean Car waiver, EPA relied heavily on the fact that the program cuts traditional air pollutants, including those that cause ozone pollution, from vehicles," wrote Ann Carlson of Legal Planet.
36% : "California has longstanding authority to request waivers from EPA to protect its residents from dangerous air pollution coming from mobile sources like cars and trucks," said Michael Regan of the EPA.
30% : Some believe that granting the waivers under the Clean Air Act may be a roadblock to any quick moves to rescind the waivers by Trump.
