“A group of 17 U.S. and foreign automakers wrote to President Trump and California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) this week, urging them to ‘resurrect’ talks in hopes of finding consensus on how fuel efficient cars and trucks must be in coming years,” the Washington Post reports.
“But White House officials have rebuffed the automakers’ request, saying there was no prospect of further negotiation with California regulator.”
“California has vowed to push ahead with its own, stricter fuel standards.”
