SECTION 1. Short title.

This Act may be cited as the “Light-Duty Natural Gas Vehicle Parity Act of 2018”.

Not later than 30 days after the date of enactment of this Act, the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency shall amend the regulations and policies of the Environmental Protection Agency—
