Washington, D.C. - Today, 16 governors are sounding the alarm over President Biden’s electric vehicle (EV) mandates. In a letter to the White House, the governors urge Biden to repeal his EV mandate that 2 out of every 3 vehicles be battery-powered by 2032.  The governors raise concerns over lack of choice, high costs, and heavy reliance on China among other concerns.

“These governors are telling the truth Joe Biden doesn’t want to hear, EVs are expensive, unwanted, and shouldn’t be forced upon unwilling consumers,” said Daniel Turner, Founder and Executive Director for Power The Future. “Joe Biden’s own Energy Secretary couldn’t complete an EV road trip without a colossal humiliation, and yet he’s mandating families spend more to go down the same road. I applaud these Governors for standing up for working families and urge more leaders to join them.”

In August 2023, a Power The Future poll found that 58 percent of voters in New Jersey opposed EV mandates.
