The Biden administration has rolled out new emissions standards aimed at significantly increasing the sales of electric vehicles (EVs) in the United States, setting ambitious targets for the auto industry. By the end of this decade, the mandate seeks to eliminate most sales of new gas-powered cars, with a goal for 56% of all model year 2032 vehicle sales to be non-hybrid EVs, despite only 7.6% of new car sales currently being non-hybrid EVs. This move has sparked a heated debate, with critics like Karoline Leavitt, Trump campaign national press secretary, labeling it as a violation of consumer freedom and a threat to American jobs, predicting a 'bloodbath' for American auto workers. Supporters, however, argue that the transition to EVs is essential for reducing emissions and combating climate change. The policy has put vulnerable Democrats in swing states in a difficult position, as they navigate the political ramifications of the mandate. The Trump campaign has vowed to reverse these policies 'on day one,' citing them as 'anti-American.'

The world’s transportation is going electric. Gas cars are over. Why? China and India. 30% of cars are purely electric where I’ve been in China (not just Shanghai). Not coincidentally, the air has really improved here. And that’s why India will need to go electric too. The… https://t.co/5KLZL5mcZH

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…
President Biden shouldn’t dictate what kind of car your family drives. I’ll fight Biden’s out-of-touch EV mandates!

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.
President Biden’s EV mandate will kill jobs, make us dependent on China for cars, and raise prices for Americans. We need to get back to putting Americans first. https://t.co/n2Ck9W2pfT
Biden Ban of Cars Goes Farther, 2 Yrs Later, Using EPA & "Paris" CO2 narrative doesn't hold up even using THEIR figures. But it's based on bureaucratic Regulation Without Representation and a treaty that was NEVER ratified. Why won't Republicans DO ANYTHING about it? https://t.co/PCERnSfl5D
At least 20 per cent of new vehicles sold by 2026 will be zero-emission, increasing to 60 per cent by 2030 and 100 per cent by 2035, according to new policy. 🚗🌎 Learn more about electric cars here: https://t.co/o32xN9I5XJ
Biden’s new emissions standards will force over half of new car sales to be electric by 2032. This will eliminate consumers choices and price out buyers in the market. This is a gross example of government overreach.
If every gas-powered car gets replaced with an #ElectricVehicle, how much would global temperatures go down? The Biden administration and #EPA have introduced stricter regulations on automakers as part of Biden’s #climate agenda. NTD spoke with @kdd0211. https://t.co/f6lex1yTQu
.@POTUS wants to force Wyoming drivers to buy electric vehicles they don't want, don't need, and can't afford. Americans should be able to make their own decisions about what type of vehicle works best for them. https://t.co/JfJhvm1Cjs
Are electric vehicles really that clean? The answer is a resounding yes. EVs have lower lifecycle emissions than gas cars - and by 2030, the difference will be even starker. https://t.co/j13AW22qk9 https://t.co/L8d5Lvhiss

The NYTimes keeps saying this about Biden's EV mandate: "The EPA regulation is not a ban."

The Biden Administration’s war on consumer choice is not about protecting the environment - it's about government control. Government should not be in the business of picking winners and losers. That's exactly what this latest EV mandate does. https://t.co/z6UuBxCMCz
Forcing the sales of electric vehicles isn't just impractical, it's downright INSANE! Biden's crackdown forces unrealistic mandates on automakers and will KILL American jobs! Americans should be able to choose what they want to drive!
Today, only 7.6% of new car sales are non-hybrid EVs. Joe Biden's gas car ban will require 56% of all model year 2032 vehicle sales be non-hybrid EVs. Get ready to pay more for a car you didn’t want in the first place!
