“PBS News Hour Full Episode: Trump Rolls Back Fuel Standards, Housing Crisis Deepens, Justi” — what this page in the network covers. In this full episode of PBS News Hour from September 28, 2026, the program covers three major stories shaping the nation. First, the Trump administration has announced a rollback of Biden-era fuel efficiency standards for cars and trucks, a move that could have significant implications for the auto industry, consumers, and environmental policy. The segment explores what this decision means for drivers and the broader push for cleaner vehicles.
