Trump announces 31-action deregulatory package alongside EPA rollback

President Trump joined EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin in the White House Roosevelt Room on February 12, 2026, to announce what the administration called the single largest deregulatory action in U.S. history — a package of 31 simultaneous regulatory rollbacks. The announcement framed the endangerment finding repeal as one element of a sweeping effort to eliminate Obama-era environmental rules, including vehicle emission standards for model years 2012–2027. The White House claimed over $1.3 trillion in projected savings from the package.
