About
S. 2195 refers to the Diesel Emissions Reduction Act of 2023, a piece of legislation in the 118th United States Congress (2023-2024). This bill amends the Energy Policy Act of 2005 to reauthorize the diesel emissions reduction program through 2029. The program aims to reduce harmful diesel emissions from engines and vehicles, particularly in nonattainment and maintenance areas for ozone and fine particulate matter under the Clean Air Act. Introduced in the Senate on June 22, 2023, it was reported out of the Committee on Environment and Public Works without amendment and passed the Senate by unanimous consent on May 8, 2024. As of the latest available information, it has been received in the House but not yet enacted into law. Note: S. 2195 has been used for multiple bills across different Congresses, including historical ones like the Anabolic Steroid Control Act of 2004 and others, but this entry focuses on the 118th Congress version due to recency and prominence in provided sources. Other instances, such as a proposed WWII Nurses Congressional Gold Medal Act in search results, appear to be misattributions or from future/unconfirmed sessions.
