Sidley is representing electric vehicle maker Waev in a first-of-its kind legal action against the U.S. Department of the Treasury challenging the IRS rule that excluded the company’s low-speed GEM line of electric cars from the Inflation Reduction Act’s #electricvehicle tax credit program. The company is also challenging a 50-year-old Environmental Protection Agency regulation defining a “motor vehicle” as part of the dispute. The Sidley team is being led by Justin Savage, Nathan Clukey, and Jim Wedeking, with support from Brian Morrissey and Brittany Bolen. Read more here, https://bit.ly/3WmQieE.

This is an incredible win in regard to Federal Agency overreach! This decision changes things up after 40 years of legal stuff called the Chevron Doctrine. It gives power back to Congress to make federal laws and control regulations. This decision stops unelected bureaucrats from making decisions for us or the lawmakers we elect!! Go SEMA!!!! #FederalAgencyOvereach #AutomotiveIndustry #CollectiveVoice
U.S. Supreme Court Delivers Win for Auto Aftermarket Industry Against Federal Agency Overreach The Supreme Court overturned the Chevron Doctrine curbing federal overreach and restoring regulatory clarity. This landmark decision is a game-changer for industries like the specialty automotive aftermarket, which have struggled under ambiguous federal regulations. Now, federal agencies must strictly adhere to the laws set by Congress, ensuring fairer treatment for small businesses. This ruling reaffirms that only elected officials in Congress can draft federal laws, providing a significant boost to the checks and balances of our governance system. The industry contributes nearly $337 billion in economic impact to the U.S. economy, supports 1.3 million jobs nationally, and generates $52 billion in parts sales annually.

It's so sad to see how everyone's go-to action plan is to 'sue' the other party's policy. EPA, Environmental Protection Agency, is tightening rules around tailpipe emission, which ICEVs do generate. As we all know, EVs don't generate any tailpipe emission. Yet, Republican attorneys general from 25 states are suing the EPA for "exceeding its legal authority." How so? Even the Detroit Big 3 (or Big 2 plus a European hybrid to be more accurate) recognize that the trend toward electrification of vehicles is inevitable. Their actions illustrate this without doubt. What we don't know is when this full electrification of vehicles will take place (not anywhere in the near future, if you ask me), not if EV transition will take place. Blocking regulations meant to protect the environment and further motivate carmakers to take EV transition (more) seriously will make the American carmakers less competitive in the global automotive industry. #automotiveindustry #emissionrules #evtransition

Electric vehicles on average appear to hold up better than vehicles with internal combustion engines, and they tend to come off the line with fewer defects. But they aren’t trouble-free, and problems with the batteries, charging system, and electrical systems can seriously impair their value, use or safety.
