The EPA will issue new regulations on fuel-efficiency standards for trucks today at the direction of Barack Obama. The first EPA standards for trucks and heavy-duty vehicles were issued in 2011, and the new round of regulations will be tighter still.

After all, he said, “I can do whatever I want.”
