Looks like an EO coming to force substantial electrification by 2032. They are coming after our cars. I am outraged because EV's in their present state don't work for me. I drive long distances regularly (from DFW to Houston, Colorado, South Texas, etc.). Wonder what the gas station operators think about this this. They will be coming after our thermostats next.....then God knows what else.

Tell the EPA that when China and India start participating, we will too

The one thing that could force me away from driving my small, 100% manual equipped fleet. Even if it's like it is now where there are still a few ethanol free gas stations, they're all inconvenient to get to and with less trucks and shipping to those stations I don't see how cost wouldn't skyrocket.

This is why we MUST NOT let the Obama run Biden regime, or Newsome win in 2024. We need a staunch right Republican to shove that EO straight up Biden's tailpipe.

The good thing about ruling by EO is the next person in office just undoes it.

They are all invested in lithium. Guess oil stock are too high for new group of money grabbers in Washington. Can't buy Exxon yet, but can load up on Penny lithium stock start up companies.

Just ignore it. It's what they would do if the roles were reversed.

Problem with EOs like this is that manufacturers start retooling for it and then it's hard for them to switch back.

Hopefully, this has no teeth until later and they ignore it to see if Desantis can get nominated and then win. If he doesn't, then this is on. That's your only hope.

Also, this is where I laugh at any posters who say, "EVs aren't being mandated; you don't have to buy one."

Libs already have stated you can choose which laws (and I assume EOs includes too) you have to follow and not follow. Just choose not to follow this. Get paper plates like their illegal voters use.

Engage in widespread civil disobedience if they attempt such a thing. Park gas cars at all charging stations for a week. Stuff like that. Inflict economic and political pain on the idiots pushing this.

Pretty soon you won't be able to buy a car for less than 60k. EV's are expensive and supply+demand will send gas powered car prices through the roof.

Ignore them and take them to court. The unelected are making laws that were not voted on in congress.

No mention of used / pre-owned vehicles in the article, but how long before they come after them.

Drunk on power and no roots in reality.

That's the idea. Fill the void with public transportation to control the public.

Irony in that they're not even doing that. The electricity to charge an EV's battery isn't flowing from some magical fountain we recently uncovered. Fossil fuels are still being burned somewhere and CO2 is still being emitted into our atmosphere at the same rate it always was for the same miles travelled.

This is about power and controlling the citizenry to ensure that continuing power. Everything else is just a BS cover story.

A cash for clunkers 2.0 program will erase a lot of the used car market.

About tired of these dictatorial EOs. If that vegetable feels that strongly about it, he can encourage someone in the house to sponsor a bill and see what happens.

Congress is free to pass legislation to scale back the EPA's regulatory powers involving vehicles but they have chosen not to do so

Yes.

I wonder if this will be one of those 'special EO's' like Trump's order to abandon Bagram during fighting season or any number of Obama's January 2017 EO's which Obama judges (liars) said Trump could not rescind because the Kenyan One had spoken.

The manufacturers are already retooling because of the California mandates that they already have to conform to. Biden's just riding the wave that's already coming and going to take credit for making it reality.

True. California is going to destroy this country.

There will have to be massive infrastructure build up to support any of this and as it stands there is some investment in charging stations that taxpayers are funding but nothing being done about production or the grid.

The EPA, like Biden, is useless and unconstitutional and needs to be demolished along with the FBI, IRS, DoE, etc, etc, etc....
