The media reported on Trump's pardon of nine violators of the Clean air Act

US President Donald Trump has pardoned 11 people, nine of whom were convicted of violating the Clean Air Act. This was reported on July 4 by the Reuters news agency, citing a White House official.

"All but two were convicted of violating the Clean Air Act by modifying or disabling emissions control systems on trucks," the publication says.

In addition, Trump posted information on his Truth Social network that he had signed pardons for six people who, in his opinion, were persecuted by the administration of former United States President Joe Biden and were imprisoned or could end up in prison due to the repair of their cars.
