What this bill would do

This bill, titled the "Freedom to Fuel Act," seeks to amend the Clean Air Act. The primary goal is to change how certain items are classified under the law. Specifically, it aims to exclude a portable fuel container from the definition of a consumer or commercial product. It also excludes fuel or fuel additives regulated under section 211. Additionally, it excludes motor vehicles, non-road vehicles, or non-road engines as defined under section 216.
