The Republican-led Senate on Thursday overturned several key Biden-era waivers allowing California to set its own vehicle emissions, a major blow to that state’s effort to regulate pollution from cars and trucks that could have broad environmental impacts for the rest of the country.

The U.S. Senate on Thursday voted to block California’s first-in-the-nation regulations that would ban the sale of new gasoline-powered passenger vehicles statewide in 2035, setting up a certain legal battle over the future of electric cars in the United States.

The House had voted in April and May to overturn the decisions. Its vote to reverse the Biden administration’s decision to approve waivers granted to California in allowing the state to ban the sale of gas-powered vehicles by 2035 got 211 Republican votes and 35 Democratic votes.
