Congress Eyes Higher Auto Fuel Standards in New Bill
The Palm Beach Post argues Congress may curb SUV bias as Senate passes energy legislation setting first two decade fuel efficiency rules. Advocates say the move could save 1.2 million barrels of oil daily, create about 170,000 jobs, and cut consumer costs despite auto makers clinging to light trucks. Greenville News compares state to national standards, noting No Child Left Behind leaves states free to define proficiency, with South Carolina’s standards among the highest in the nation.
