California's updated light bulb efficiency standards to take effect

A federal judge on Tuesday, Dec. 31, 2019, allowed California's updated light bulb efficiency standards to take effect
with the new year Wednesday, Jan. 1, 2020. U.S. District Judge Kimberly Mueller of Sacramento rejected a petition
from the National Electrical Manufacturers Association and the American Lighting Association to temporarily
block new minimum efficiency standards for light bulbs that were adopted by the California Energy Commission
in November. California can start enforcing its new efficiency standards for light bulbs,
over industry objections, while fighting the Trump administration’s attempt to roll back
similar standards for the rest of the nation, a federal judge ruled Tuesday.
