The Biden Administration's new environmental policies, particularly the EPA's rule on tailpipe emissions and the push for electric vehicles (EVs), have sparked controversy among politicians and experts. Critics argue that these mandates restrict consumer choice, harm the auto industry, and could lead to a greater reliance on China for resources. Lawmakers like Mike Crapo, Ted Cruz, and others are actively opposing these measures, emphasizing the impact on American families and workers. The debate centers on the feasibility and consequences of transitioning to EVs, with concerns raised about practicality in regions like Wyoming and the impact on energy independence.
President Biden’s energy agenda is backward. He killed the Keystone XL Pipeline & blocked LNG exports – all while trying to ban gas stoves & forcing Americans to buy electric vehicles. We need an all-of-the-above energy strategy, not more out of touch mandates.

President Biden’s LNG export ban helps our adversaries and hurts hardworking Americans. That’s America last. https://t.co/5eD2JNjcds
Americans don’t want costly vehicles they can’t rely on. Taking away consumer choice and forcing folks to buy EVs is wrong and will do NOTHING to curb greenhouse gas emissions in the end. What it will do is embolden Communist China. https://t.co/6mwNMIJndy

Biden and the left’s radical energy policies will only help China and harm the American people. Enough is enough! Listen to my thoughts on this, EVs, consumer choice, and more with the @EveningEdit on @FoxBusiness ⬇️ https://t.co/ATG1nILRB7
Look. It’d be cool if EVs were practical for this kind of travel. But they’re just not. I regularly drive 12+ hours a day for work. I’m driving 7 hours today. My life would be a living hell if I had to do it in an EV. https://t.co/dhoUaUL6Wz

The federal government has taken numerous steps to hinder American energy production and has turned to foreign countries to meet our domestic energy demand, which hurts American workers and undermines our country’s energy security. That’s why I supported the Protecting American…
I was proud to vote in favor of @RepNewhouse’s H.Res.987 this week. The Biden administration’s war on American energy producers has increased costs on working families, harmed the economy, and threatened our national security. https://t.co/DWzLIRNAo5
I have an EV. I'm not a hater. And this is still dumb. I could drive my sedan for about this amount across country... And faster than the EV because of charging times. https://t.co/5KYiPOKiJ5
EVs were not built for Wyoming. We drive over a mile high every day, we drive in bitter cold and we drive through mountains. EVs were built for coastal elites by coastal elites. It is fine for coastal elites to drive EVs, but do not force them on middle America. https://t.co/yGBlZ3ad40

This week, the federal government released new rules that would cut the number of gas-burning cars sold over the next decade. While drafted with good intentions, the move could very well backfire. https://t.co/fkCIfuZDoG

Joe Biden declared war on American energy the moment he stepped foot into the Oval Office. That is why House Republicans passed six energy bills this week to restore American energy dominance and lower costs for families. https://t.co/MPTmvWf8YC

Unreal - talk about taking away consumer choice. This administration wants to decide for Americans what kind of car they should drive by regulating gas-powered vehicles off the road. https://t.co/rA9XgQX0Wr

Biden’s ban on gas-powered vehicles is another direct assault on consumer choice & the American way of life. It ignores the needs of American families to appease the radical environmental lobby. This reckless decision will harm the millions of workers who depend on the…
And your $TSLA only depreciates $3,000 during the trip. I see 18 charging stops at 40 min each so 12 hours of recharging alone. 17 gal SUV @ 18mog @ 10 min = sub 2 hours refueling I *don't* understand. EVs are great for local commutes & overnight garage charging. https://t.co/RElTsmBATd
President Biden shouldn’t dictate what kind of car your family drives. I’ll fight Biden’s out-of-touch EV mandates!

From @WSJopinion: Americans understand that no Tesla is going to function in the cold of a Wisconsin or Alaska winter; no Ford Lightning will manage the work of a farm. They understand a ban means the end of entire lifestyles, writes @KimStrassel. https://t.co/b3BEl1MUaA

The Biden Administration has taken millions of acres of public lands offline from energy production, locking up our resources where we should be drilling and mining. As a co-sponsor, I was proud to support @RepNewhouse resolution yesterday condemning these anti-American policies.
The EPA’s rule on tailpipe emissions sets unrealistic & unachievable standards that go too far at restricting vehicle choices for American families and pushes our country toward a greater dependence on China. I urge the Senate to adopt my & @Sen_JoeManchin amendment to block it.
