Trump administration rolls back Biden-era refrigerant regulations to lower grocery costs.

The Trump administration announced it is easing and delaying compliance with two Biden-era EPA rules that restricted the use of hydrofluorocarbons in refrigeration and air conditioning. EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin stated the changes will save businesses billions and lower grocery prices, though critics note the actual impact on consumer food prices is uncertain given other inflationary pressures like the Iran war and tariffs.
