Several Republican lawmakers, including Sen. Joni Ernst and Rep. John Joyce, are criticizing President Biden's EV mandates, stating that Americans do not want to be forced to buy electric vehicles. Rep. Feenstra led a group of 140 colleagues in urging the Biden administration to end the mandates, emphasizing that Americans should have the freedom to choose their preferred vehicles. Commentators like George Will have also criticized the administration's push for EVs, calling it costly and coercive with minimal climate impact.
George Will: “The Biden administration’s costly and coercive crusade to replace internal combustion vehicles (ICVs) with electric vehicles (EVs) is disproportionate to its minuscule climate impact.” https://t.co/S5lo3DFrKO
President Biden shouldn’t be using taxpayer dollars to force Americans to buy electric vehicles. In February, I led 140 of my colleagues in urging the Biden administration to end its EV mandates on our families. Americans deserve to choose the vehicle that’s best for them!
EVs can't drive our economy. President Biden shouldn't force Americans to buy cars that they do not want and cannot afford. https://t.co/pybAGALcvm
